About me

I received my B.Tech in Information Technology from the University of Auckland, New Zealand. I worked as a software engineer for two and a half years after my bachelors, and came back to academia and received M.S. in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I started my Ph.D. program in 2011.

My Ph.D. advisor is Ralph Johnson, and I am interested in program transformations and user-centric software tools that help programmers improve their code and productivity. My current research focuses on developing intuitive program transformation tools, and extending IDEs to include a "temporal dimension" that allows seamless integration of multiple versions of code.
