I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the School of Computer Science at Georgia Institute of Technology. My research interests are broadly in the systems and networking space, with a current focus on systems that span the cloud, the network, and the edge in enabling efficient data analysis and machine learning.

I am always looking for highly motivated PhD students to join my research group. If you are interested in working with me and like building real systems, please apply to Georgia Tech's CS PhD program and mention my name. If you are already a Georgia Tech student, please get in touch with me.

Before coming to Georgia Tech, I was a researcher at Microsoft Research. I completed my PhD in Computer Science at the University of California, Berkeley advised by Ion Stoica. Previously, I worked with the Mobility, Networks & Systems group at Microsoft Research India.
