I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the Illinois Institute of Technology. I lead the laboratory for high-performance, experimental systems and architecture (HExSA) where we focus on various aspects of computer systems research. My research interests span several areas in systems including OS, computer architecture, embedded systems, system security, and virtualization. A current primary focus of our lab is the design of specialized system software stacks for parallel and emerging computing applications. You can see my publications below.
I have been fortunate to receive the NSF CAREER award (2023-2028), as well as the IIT College of Computing’s Excellence in Teaching and Excellence in Research awards.
I received my PhD from Northwestern University, where I worked with Peter Dinda. Before that I received my B.S. in computer science from UT Austin, where I worked with Boris Grot and
