I am a Ph.D. student in the Computer Systems Lab, Electrical Engineering at Stanford University.
I work in the High-Performance Networking Group with Prof. Nick McKeown.

I organize the Stanford Networking Seminar.

Research

My research interests are in several areas of Networking including router and switch architecture, packet switching algorithms, and wireless communications. My current research is on Sizing Buffers in Internet Routers. In the past I have been involved in the Dynamic Circuit Switching project as part of the Stanford's Clean-Slate program.
Teaching

Spring 2008: TA for Packet Switch Architecture (EE384Y).
