Welcome to my Homepage,

I am a graduate student at Princeton University who expects to complete my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering by June 2008, under the supervision of Professor Margaret Martonosi.

Here you will find information about myself, my work, and my professional interests.

My research interests are in Embedded Systems and Mobile Sensor Networks. More specifically, I am interested in solving the problems of variation and uncertainty in sparse mobile networks. As part of my dissertation, “Dynamic Management of Sparse Mobile Systems with Intermittent Connectivity”, I developed the ZebraNet system, a hardware/software sensor system dedicated to sparse mobile networks. This system, through delay-tolerant collaborations, offers efficient services such as energy adaptation and GPS-less localization, ensuring that energy usage is minimized and parameter accuracy maximized.

Besides research, I immensely enjoy teaching and have obtained extensive experience in that respect. Throughout my graduate career as well as my time as a Caltech undergraduate, I have worked as a teaching assistant for 10 courses, Head TA in 4 instances. In 2005, I received the Princeton Outstanding Teaching Assistant Award. Furthermore, all the courses I have TA-ed had a significant hands-on project portion, in which I worked closely with every single student to help them not only understand the theory, but also bring the theory to reality.
