About Me

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at Purdue University, advised by Dr. Changhee Jung. I design hardware mechanisms that address energy and performance bottlenecks in real-world workloads, with a focus on energy-efficient CPU/GPU microarchitecture, cache optimization, secure memory management, and intermittent computing.
