I am broadly interested in the area of Computer Systems, with specific research focuses on storage systems, system architecture, and embedded software. My current work explores next-generation storage technologies such as zoned namespace (ZNS) SSDs, NVMe, and non-volatile memory, as well as middleware and host-level system software that enable efficient integration with AI accelerators and mobility platforms.

The central aim of my research is to advance system software that fully leverages emerging hardware technologies, enhancing performance, scalability, and dependability for data-intensive applications. I look forward to working together with motivated students to explore these challenges and create the next generation of intelligent computing.
