Update: I have, at last, defended my dissertation (June 2018), and am now
helping build quantum computers at IonQ.

About me:  [Here is where I would, if I were cool, put a comma-separated list of
pompous nouns.  I'll bore you in complete sentences instead.]  I'm an Nth-year CS
Ph.D. student (for frighteningly non-decreasing values of N) advised by Andrea and
Remzi Arpaci-Dusseau.  I mostly work on storage-related things.  I minored in jazz
studies, in which I was advised by Johannes Wallmann.  As an undergrad I majored
in computer engineering at the University of British Columbia.
