I am currently working as a Performance and Capacity Engineer for Meta Platforms, Inc., focusing on improving the efficiency of Meta's infrastructure. I received my Ph.D. in CSE from Pennsylvania State University where I was advised by Dr. Timothy Zhu and Dr. Bhuvan Urgaonkar. My thesis focuses on improving the fidelity of using real-world traces in cloud systems experiments. I have published works in top systems conferences (EuroSys '24 and '21, OSDI '23) and have internship experiences at Microsoft Research and Gray Systems Lab (GSL), Microsoft.
