About
I am an undergraduate student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell University, graduating in May 2026. My research focuses on computer and memory hierarchy design for modern AI systems, including heterogeneous memory architectures, accelerator-memory codesign, and data-movement-efficient architectures.
I am currently a member of the Alian Research Group advised by Professor Mohammad Alian. Previously, I was part of the SciFi Lab advised by Professor Cheng Zhang, where I worked on hardware prototyping for wearable computing HCI research.
