I am a postdoc in the RISE lab at Berkeley. My research interests lie in developing systems for self-driving cars and robots, distributed systems, operating systems, and large scale data processing. In my current research, I am building a platform for developing more predictable and reliable autonomous vehicles... Before joining Berkeley, I spent my time redesigning the software stack for warehouse scale data centres as part of the Systems Research Group at University of Cambridge. In my research there, I designed and built systems that aimed to increase cluster utilization without affecting performance, as well as easy-to-use large-scale data processing solutions. For my research at Cambridge I received a Google Fellowship in Distributed Systems and an NSDI Best Paper Award. Previously, I graduated with an MEng degree in Computing and Software Engineering from Imperial College London where I was awarded the Microsoft Research Prize for an outstanding master thesis.
