About Me:

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Computer Science and Engineering Department, UCSD. I am graduating soon and currently looking for a full-time research oriented position.

Research:

My research interest lies in the area of low power sensing systems and their applications. Specifically, I have designed a low power sensor platform and developed a location aware power management technique that uses sensor nodes for PC power management. In addition, I have conducted extensive research in distributed simulations to make it easier to design, program and evaluate sensor nodes and sensor networks.
