I am currently working towards a PhD degree at the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL). My research interests include: compilers, automatic parallelization, computer architecture and runtime systems. I am working in the Commit Research Group, under the supervision of Prof. Saman Amarasinghe.

Previously, I completed my Master's at the University of Toronto under Prof. Gregory Steffan. My MASc thesis titled "A Dynamic Instrumentation Approach to Software Transactional Memory" can be found here.

You can find my curriculum vitae here.
