I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science from The University of Texas at Austin. My research focuses on the area of computer systems and architecture, including virtualization and accelerators. I am a member of the SCEA group at UT Austin, working with Prof. Christopher J. Rossbach. Previously, I received a B.E. degree at Ajou University and researched at Computer Systems Lab with Prof. Jeongseob Ahn.
