I am a joint Bachelor’s and Master’s student in CS working in the Data Science Lab at USC, advised by Prof. Viktor K. Prasanna and Prof. Rajgopal Kannan.
My full CV can be found here.
I’m interested in the following topics:

• Data Prefetching & Memory Subsystems
• Heterogeneous Computing with Integrated & Discrete Accelerators
• Low-Cost Neural Network Inference & Edge Computing
• Model-Architecture & Hardware-Software Co-Design
