I work in the the Online Services Division (Bing) as an architect working on Bing's storage systems. From 2007-2012, I was a Senior Researcher at Microsoft Research. I enjoy working on projects related to systems research. Lately, that has involved OS support for new memory technologies, such as Phase Change Memory, data mining, heterogeneous hardware architectures, and large-scale storage systems.
I received my Ph.D. from the University of Michigan in 2007.
My advisor was Jason Flinn.
