About
I am a 4th year Ph.D. student in the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University, where I am fortunate to work with Zhihao Jia as part of the Catalyst Lab and Parallel Data Lab.
I’m also a Research Scientist Intern at Snowflake AI Research, where I’m fortunate to work with Aurick Qiao and Samyam Rajbhandari.
I am interested in machine learning systems, parallel computing and distributed systems, with a particular focus on large language models (LLMs).
