Now into year 3 of my CS Ph.D odyssey here at Princeton, my research interests are now deeply intwined in new network architectures and datacenter resource allocation problems. Embedding intelligence and optimizing in-network decisions are on the forefront of my mind as well.

After 9 years in industry with jaunts ranging from monolithic telco, to internet startup, to OSS/Network simulation vendor, I’ve jumped back into the academic fray. My early undergraduate years at MIT are distant and removed, but are still fondly recalled.

Family-wise, things are busy at home with a now-working wife and 2 super-cute daughters, but kids really are amazing and nothing beats having a supportive, loving spouse to come home to and live life together with.
