About me

I am a master’s student in Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Tianqi Chen as a member of the Catalyst Group. I am also a student researcher at the UC Berkeley Sky Computing Lab, working with Ion Stoica.

My research focuses on machine learning systems, particularly efficient LLM inference and infrastructure for reinforcement learning.
