About

I am a researcher at Microsoft Research in the Networking Research Group. I got my PhD in computer science from the University of Pennsylvania in 2017 working with my advisors Prof. Boon Thau Loo and Prof. Roch Guerin and started at Microsoft as a post doctoral researcher. I completed my dual masters degree in computer science and electrical engineering at the University of Pennsylvania in the same year. I completed my B. Sc. in Electrical Engineering at Sharif University of Technology in 2010. You can download my CV here.

My current, primary, focus is on understanding the performance of deployed algorithms.  I broadly work on automating network management and explore different aspects of this space which include: risk-estimation, diagnosis, verification, and other relevant topics.
