I am an Assistant Professor in the Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern University. I jointly run the systems research group with other faculty. I am interested in designing novel systems (operating systems, distributed systems, storage systems, etc.) and exploring formal verification methods that can be applied to system designs. Prior to joining Northeastern University, I was an Associate Research Scientist at Yale University and received my Ph.D. degree from Cornell University. 

[Recruiting Ph.D. students in 2025] 

I am looking for talented PhD students who are interested in systems and/or formal methods (see my research page). If you are interested in working with me, please contact me via email. Information about officially applying for the graduate program at Northeastern can be found here
