I am a Scientist in Los Alamos National Lab’s High-Performance Computing Division and a member of the Lab’s Ultrascale System Research Center. I do I/O and storage research that guides the Lab’s future computing platform and storage infrastructure designs. I received my PhD in Computer Science from Carnegie Mellon University in 2021. I am known for my expertise in distributed filesystem metadata and large-scale scientific data analytics. My work has been exhibited at local science museums, reported by national media, and recognized with multiple R&D 100 and Supercomputing Best Paper Awards.
