About me

I’m a PhD candidate in Computer Engineering at Purdue University. My research area is in computer systems and networking with a focus on synthesizing wide-area network designs with provable performance and designing resilient traffic engineering schemes. My works typically combine optimization-theoretic methods including modeling and proofs, along with system prototype building and evaluation which involves real world network topologies and data-sets, and implementation using Mininet and Open vSwitch. I also had experience in building large systems using languages including C++, Java and Python.  My advisor is Professor Sanjay Rao.

I’m expecting to graduate in Spring 2022 and I’m currently looking for industry positions of software engineer or researcher starting from June 2022.
