I am an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York. I am generally interested in distributed systems, networking, and operating systems. My current research focus is on mobile systems. Before joining UB, I graduated with PhD from UIUC in 2009 under Indranil Gupta and was a postdoc at Princeton for one year under Michael Freedman and Jennifer Rexford. I received the NSF CAREER Award in 2014, the UB Young Investigator Award in 2014, the UB Engineering Early Career Teacher of the Year Award in 2015, and the UB Teaching Innovation Award in 2016.
