I am a software engineering graduate student exploring AI‑enabled systems, software architecture, and low‑level systems programming.

About

Currently pursuing my Master of Science in Software Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, I previously completed my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree with High Honor in Research at the University of Rochester. My coursework focuses on ML systems, software architecture, and systems programming, as well as software engineering principles and techniques.

My prior research focuses on non-intrusive workload characterization of large language models (LLMs) using GPU telemetry and cache timing side-channels.
