I am a computer scientist interested in all aspect of data and information management research. I focus on building and analyzing analytical data management systems and highly value deployments to end-users. Through industry collaborations, e.g., with Distyl AI and Pometry, I try to think about technical and research challenges starting from product requirements and end-user pain points.
Current project directions:
- Optimizing NLP & data science pipelines.
- Info. retrieval over heteronegeous data sources.
- Query execution and optimization for analytical workloads.
Past projects:
- GraphflowDB: an in-memory research prototype, co-built during my Ph.D.
- Kùzu: GraphflowDB successor and is a VC-funded startup.
