I’m a Ph.D. researcher at UCLA’s VAST Lab, working at the intersection of hardware and machine learning. My work spans hardware-software co-design, high-level synthesis, and efficient accelerator architectures for ML workloads. I build compilers, frameworks, and design automation tools that push the limits of FPGA and ASIC performance.
Always happy to discuss research, exchange ideas, or collaborate! 😊
