I am first-year graduate student at Virginia Tech studying safe kernel extensions, primarily focusing on extending eBPF through new kernel mechanisms. eBPF provides a mechanism to safely extend running kernels, providing a unique way to dynamically change operating system behavior. eBPF has been applied to increase system observability and tracing, as well as to improve networking performance by bypassing the existing kernel networking stack.
I have been an avid Linux user and enthusiast since my older brother installed Arch Linux on my laptop in elementary school. I was the President of the Linux and Unix Users Group at Virginia Tech from Fall 2023 through Fall 2024. I believe that high quality free and open source software is absolutely essential to the modern tech landscape, and, as an extension, modern society.
Outside of technology, I am an avid musician, and I love spending time outdoors. I enjoy reading books, and going deep on topics that interest me, which is the focus of the blog attached to this page.
