I received my Ph.D. degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. My advisor is Professor Yuanyuan Zhou. My research interests include operating systems, software reliability, security, and distributed systems.

bulletI joined the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Ohio State University in September 2006. This is my web page there.
