Performance and Power Engineer at Arm. Hardware/software co-design for ML systems — energy-harvesting sensors, computational storage, intermittent and continuous learning at the edge.
I'm a Performance and Power Engineer on the SoC Architecture Performance team at Arm in San Diego, where I work on pre-silicon performance and power analysis for next-generation heterogeneous SoCs targeting Edge AI, IoT, and automotive workloads. Recently completed my Ph.D. at Penn State, advised by Mahmut Taylan Kandemir and Jack Sampson.
