I'm at the Statistical Learning at Princeton Group and the S* Network Systems Group (SNS) in the Computer Science Dept.

I'm advised by Prof. David Blei and Prof. Mike Freedman.

I'm a fourth-year PhD student. I joined Princeton after several years at Mazu Networks (acquired by Riverbed Technology). I received my M.S. in Computer Science from Purdue University.

Research

In my research, I develop probabilistic graphical models and inference algorithms to learn latent structures in massive networks.

For publications, please see my CV or google scholar.

Early in my PhD, I worked with Erik Nordstrom, David Shue and the rest of the Serval team to build the first version of an end-host stack for a service-centric network architecture.
