About

My name is Sherman, and I am an incoming CS PhD Student at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU). Iām broadly interested in systems and networking, with a focus on improving the resource efficiency of datacenters and hardware-software co-design, especially designing software systems for emerging hardware.
Before CMU, I was a software engineer at Jump Trading, where I built low-latency systems for high-frequency trading applications. I also recently worked on accelerating memory-disaggregated data systems using DPUs with Prof. Jialin Li and, further back, QUIC congestion control with Prof. Ben Leong, at the National University of Singapore. I received my Bachelor in Computer Science from the National University of Singapore.
Do refer to my CV for more details.
