Research
I'm a second-year PhD student in the Computer Architecture Group at UCSD. I'm currently researching massively heterogeneous processors as a solution to continued performance scaling in the face of the death of Moore's Law. It's an especially interesting time to be an architect!
I'm also interested in computer security, specifically low-level hardware attacks. The complexity of critical systems today seems to grow without bound, and unless we maintain a focus on system security at all phases of the design process, we leave ourselves open to attack.
Advisor
My advisor is Steve Swanson. He is so bold, he once threw his cell phone into Monterey Bay on purpose. With gusto.
Miscellaneous
I'm a big fan of the Vim text editor. Here is my configuration file.
I wrote this summary of Screen commands.
How to send email to your phone when there is free food in the department.
About Me
I grew up in New Mexico and I love the southwest. I went to New Mexico Tech as an undergraduate, where I made a name for myself as a kilted mountaineer, among other things. Now I bum around on the beaches of southern California, when I'm not stuck in the lab.
