Welcome

Greetings! I am currently a Ph.D. Candidate in Department of Computer Science, Stony Brook University. I am a member of the PACE Lab and the NetSys Lab, co-advised by Aruna Balasubramanian and Anshul Gandhi.

I will be joining ByteDance (Mountain View Office) in 2020.

Research Area

My high level research interests are network performance modeling and optimizations. Specifically, I work on:

Designing novel models to predict and improve application latency.
Performance evaluation of emerging TCP variants (BBR).
