I am a Researcher (Oct 2008 - present) in the Cloud Computing Futures project at Microsoft Research. Prior to Microsoft, I was a graduate student in Computer Science Department at University of California, San Diego.
My interests are in systems and networking as long as it has some connection to Data Centers. In the past I have been involved with traffic, topology, virtual machines, and internet services. Here is a link to my old webpage.
