I am a systems builder; I enjoy designing, building, and evaluating software systems. I am currently a Software Engineer at ConductorOne. I also teach a weekly yoga class at Centered City Yoga.
Previously, I received a PhD from the University of Utah, where I was advised by Ryan Stutsman. My dissertation focussed on mechanisms for reconfiguration and extensibility in distributed key-value stores. I also helped design and build an experimental operating system called NRkernel.
During my PhD, I was generously supported by a Google PhD Fellowship.
