I am currently a graduate student at
Carnegie Mellon University's
Parallel Data Lab. I plan to
graduate in Summer 2009.
My interests include distributed file systems, information
dissemination mechanisms, user-centered design and entrepreneurship.
I am interested
in bringing the user-centered design techniques, which have been
so effective at improving the usability of user interfaces, to bear on system
architectures, making them easier
to understand and more accomodating of users' social systems.
I have
focused recently on distributed storage systems for the home.
