I completed my PhD in Computer Science at Northeastern University in 2013 and I currently work at EMC. During my PhD, I investigated new ways to model flash storage performance and build low-latency, high density flash storage systems. My advisor was Peter Desnoyers. I received my BS from Bucharest Polytechnic University in 2006 and MS from Stony Brook University in 2008.
