I’m a postdoctoral researcher at TU Berlin in the Distributed and Operating Systems (DOS) group led by Prof. Odej Kao, where I completed my PhD with distinction in June 2025. I’m currently a visiting researcher at the Cambridge Sustainable Computing Lab.

Datacenters are becoming GW-scale consumers of electricity and embodied resources, yet their environmental cost remains opaque and hard to reduce or control. My research vision is to make the environmental impact of large-scale computing and AI systems measurable and accountable, and to develop approaches to reduce it. I’m convinced that sustainability can’t be achieved by efficiency alone, nor treated as a governance problem outside the reach of computer science research.

I’m interested in research at the intersection of computing and energy systems, such as carbon-aware computing [Middleware'21, e-Energy'24, e-Energy'25], modeling and analysis [HotCarbon'24, SSC'25], and efficient ML systems [NeurIPS'24, HyperAgents'25].
