Biography

 I am a PhD student from the Department of Electrical Engineering. I am part of the Stanford Information Networking Group (SING). My PhD Advisor is Prof. Philip Levis . Before I came to Stanford, I was working for the National Research Council of Canada as a Research Officer for about 3 years.

Research Interests

 (i) Evaluation of packet delivery performance in Low Power Wireless Networks , and
(ii) Low Power Link Estimation.
