MSc. (2006)






About me

I was a student at the Storage Systems Research Center. My advisors were officially Carlos Maltzahn and Scott Brandt but I also ended up getting a lot of help from Ethan Miller. I did some cool research on the uses of enhanced metadata in filesystems. You are welcome to take a look at my seriously outdated resume.

As of October 2006, I am working at Apple on local filesystems in the Core OS group.
