I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at the University of Texas at Austin. I co-lead the UT Networked Systems Research Group and am also a member of the Wireless Networking and Communications Group and 6G@UT.

My research focuses on designing new hardware and software systems that make cloud and edge datacenters faster, more efficient, and more resilient. Current projects include:

• Resource management for programmable cloud infrastructure
• Robust and resilient cellular network infrastructure
• End-to-end framework for network transport design and implementation
• Learning-directed operating system

Prior to joining UT Austin, I was a senior researcher in the Office of the CTO in the Azure for Operators group and at Microsoft Research Redmond. I received my PhD from the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University, where I was advised by Vyas Sekar and Srinivasan Seshan. My dissertation introduced new abstractions and runtime systems to enable elastic and resilient in-network computing. My work was supported in part by the Microsoft Research PhD Fellowship. Prior to joining CMU, I worked as a research scientist at KAIST. Before that, I received a BS and MS degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from POSTECH, South Korea.
