I am a second-year Computer Science PhD student at the University of Pennsylvania, where I am advised by Professor Linh Thi Xuan Phan. My research, which is partially supported by the NSF GRFP, focuses on scheduling and resource allocation for real-time, cyber-physical, and distributed systems. In 2024, I graduated with Honors in Computer Science and a second major in Applied Mathematics from Vanderbilt University, where I was advised by Professor Bryan C. Ward.
