I am a PhD candidate at the Manning College of Information & Computer Sciences, University of Massachusetts (UMass) Amherst, supervised by Prashant Shenoy and Ahmed Ali-Eldin.

My research primarily focuses on distributed systems. I design and implement practical systems that interest the relationship between application performance SLO requirements and power consumption of cloud data centers.
