ECE Department Carnegie Mellon University
I am a 4th year PhD student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Prof. Ken Mai. I’m a computer architect and a chip-building VLSI engineer with sub-28nm tapeout experiences. My research interests are in the design of domain-specific accelerators for emerging applications such as deep learning and robotics. I’m especially interested in designing flexible and future-proof accelerators that are ready for workloads of the future.
Prior to CMU, I graduated from Duke University with my BS in Electrical and Computer Engineering. During my undergrad I worked with Prof. Krishnendu Chakrabarty on hardware security.
