I'm joining Carnegie Mellon's CS Department (and HCII by courtesy) as an assistant professor in Fall 2027!
I'll be recruiting PhD students next cycle. If you're interested in AI systems or human-AI collaboration, list me in your application. Stay tuned for more about my new lab!

Thanks to @googlecloud's BigTable for providing prizes to the top 3 @CMUDB students with the fastest project implementations in our Intro DB Systems course this semester! They have to implement a buffer pool, B Tree, query executors, and MVCC in BusTub.
Non-CMU students can also test their code via Gradescope (no prizes though): 15445.courses.cs.cmu.edu/spr…
