I am a graduate student under the supervision of Prof. Semih Salihoglu.
I am a member of the Data Systems Group.
I work on Graphflow, an open-source active graph database.
Research Interests
I am interested in various models and applications of data systems. My current work focuses on optimizations for query execution and development of auxiliary data structures to evaluate graph database queries efficiently.
