About Me

I am a fifth year Ph.D. student at University of California, Santa Barbara (2016-present) working under the supervision of Professor Yuan Xie and Professor Yufei Ding. My current research interests include benchmarking, performance analysis, and software/hardware co-design techniques for graph processing workloads. I have done two summer internships at Intel Labs (Memory Architecture Lab) and one internship at Alibaba DAMO Academy. Prior to joining UCSB, I completed my undegraduate degree in Electrical Engineering at Princeton University (2012-2016) and worked with Professor Claire Gmachl.
