About

Hi there! I'm a Software Engineer at AWS, where I work on the EC2 Nitro Live Migration team.

I completed my PhD at Max Planck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS), advised by Peter Druschel and Deepak Garg. It was an incredible journey that sparked my passion for building systems that are fast, reliable, and privacy-preserving by design. During that time, I grew not just technically, but also in how I approach complex research problems thoughtfully and systematically.

Today, I focus on strengthening cloud infrastructure reliability, optimizing systems performance, and using data-driven insights to guide informed engineering decisions at scale. I love decomposing complex systems to better understand, refine, and evolve them.

I enjoy connecting with people who are passionate about building and improving systems. Whether you are working on distributed systems, cloud architecture, performance optimization, or something entirely different, feel free to reach out. Iā€™m always happy to exchange ideas and learn from new perspectives.
