With ESL
- PhD, 2025 - Now
Biography
I graduated from Northeastern University in 2024 with a BS in Computer Engineering & Computer Science and an MS in Computer Science. During this time, I began collaborating with Dr. Schirner on a project that would lead to the foundation of the Novel Computer Architectures Group of the ESL and my entry into the Computer Engineering PhD program in 2025. We are tasked with developing a novel dataflow architecture based on a previously overlooked model of computation that may hold the key to implementing dataflow at scale.
Contributions
- Founded the Novel Computer Architectures Group
- Assembled a diverse and talented group of Northeastern students charged with developing a full technology stack (michroarchitecture, ISA, compiler, language, and programs) around a radically different approach to dataflow architectures.
- Orchestrating research and development with quickly moving targets across the various fields of computer science and engineering that such an endeavor encompasses.
- Developed NCAG-001, the first of two prototype architectures to come out of the NCAG.
