I am a fourth year graduate student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I am a member of the Computer Networks Research Group, co-directed by Professor James Kurose and Professor Donald Towsley. I am working with my advisor, Professor James Kurose, on network routing problems. We are currently investigating how to recover from scenarios where false routing state is injected and has spread throughout a network of routers (e.g., by misconfigured or compromised routers). To this end, we have extended distance vector routing to remove such false routing state and allow routers to converge on new least cost paths. This is joint work done with Professor Gerome Miklau.

Previously, I worked with Professor Yanlei Diao on pattern matching over data streams. Specifically, I worked on the SASE project where I designed, implemented, and evaluated real-time query processing algorithms.
