About

I was a Ph.D. student in the Computer Science department at Cornell from 2013 to 2020. In August 2020 I graduated, and hence I no longer have access to the server on which this website is hosted.

I have left this website here for archival purposes, and so that existing links to it on the Internet do not get unnecessarily broken. However, it is now obsolete, and will not be updated.

Teaching

In Spring 2020, I taught CS 4411: Operating Systems Practicum, an optional companion course to Cornell's Operating Systems class.

In July and August 2019, I taught the summer edition of CS4410: Operating Systems.

In addition, I enhanced my teaching skills by taking ALS 6015: Teaching in Higher Education during the Spring 2017 semester.

I have been a teaching assistant for the following classes at Cornell:

While at Brown, I was a teaching assistant for these classes: I did significant course development work for CS 195n during the summer of 2012. Most of the materials I created and tested for this course are still being used in its current iterations.
