PhD Candidate RACE Lab
Department of Computer Science
University of California, Santa Barbara
Thanks for navigating to my webpage. I am a Ph.D. candidate at the Computer Science Department at UCSB. My advisor is Chandra Krintz and I work in the RACE Lab. My broad thesis focus is Memory Management (Garbage Collection) support for Managed Runtime Environments/Virtual Machines. I am interested in runtime performance analysis, memory management, and compiler support for managed runtimes. A copy of my CV can be found here.
