Hi!👋, I'm Talia

I'm a first-year P.hD. student at UT Austin, advised by Prof. Vijay Chidambaram. My research interests lie in machine learning systems and storage/file systems.

Before joining UT, I earned my BA/MS in CS from Boston University, where I worked on building efficient training systems for Graph Neural Networks under the supervision of Prof. Vasiliki (Vasia) Kalavri.
