I’m a CS PhD student at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, advised by Prof. Abhishek Chandra. My research interest includes {Networked, Distributed, Multimedia} Systems, Edge Computing, Resource Allocation, and Video Analytics. I earned my BS in Telecommunications Engineering at Bandung Insitute of Technology (ITB), advised by Prof. Hendrawan. During my undegraduate, I collaborated with Prof. Junchen Jiang and Prof. Haryadi Gunawi of the University of Chicago on a Video Analytics research project.
