Welcome!

I lead the UT Systems and Storage Lab. My group builds the next generation of data systems with a focus on performance and reliability. We open-source our software and collaborate closely with industry. I am also part of the UT Data Sytems group and the LASR research group at UT Austin.

I am not recruiting any students for Fall 2027.


Research group out at lunch in 2018!
