About

Currently, I’m pursuing Masters in Computer Science at the University of Wisconsin Madison, specializing in the Systems track. I like to analyze problems associated with large-scale systems, exploring various trade-offs in order to optimize performance. I’m interested in building scalable and performant systems. At YugabyteDB, I dealt with problems revolving around a Distributed Database setup. I worked on decreasing critical write path latencies and, expediting the bootstrap of a new node in a data replicated environment.
