Biography
I am a PhD student in Computer Science at The University of Texas at San Antonio, where I am advised by Dr. Mimi Xie. My research focuses on computer architecture, with a particular interest in in-memory computing and domain wall memory. I am also interested in energy-efficient computing, embedded systems, and the implementation of machine learning algorithms on novel hardware architectures.
I hold an MS in Computer Science from The Pennsylvania State University and a BEng in Computer Science from The University of Hong Kong.
