Short Bio

I have just started my PhD in Northeastern University. I received my Bachelors degree in University of Waterloo, and am waiting for my Masters degree to be conferred.

I'm interested in both research and teaching. My current research interests are about Just-In-Time compilers and WebAssembly. Previously in University of Waterloo, I was a teaching assistant for various courses for many terms. I even taught a first year CS course as an instructor right before the pandemic.

I have interned in various places including Amazon, IBM and Oracle as software developer.
