MS Electrical and Computer Engineering at Northeastern University, Boston (May 2027). Concentration in Computer Systems and Software.
I work at the boundary between hardware and software: pipeline microarchitecture, cache-aware kernel optimization, GPU acceleration, distributed systems concurrency and embedded firmware. Most of my projects either model real hardware to make it observable or push real hardware to its memory-bandwidth ceiling.
Currently seeking Fall 2026 co-op roles in embedded firmware, computer architecture or hardware performance engineering.
