About me

I'm a Ph.D student at Computer Science Department at Johns Hopkins University. I'm a member of Distributed Systems and Networks lab and I'm working with prof. Yair Amir. I'm interested in networks and distributed systems and I'm currently developing SMesh, a wireless mesh system. Here is a live snapshot of our network. Before Hopkins I attended Politehnica University of Bucharest, Romania, where I got my B.S. (2003) and M.S. (2004) degrees in Computer Science. For more details, here's my résumé.

My passion is to use technology and build systems that have a positive impact and make people's life easier.

Also, I have a twin brother, Răzvan :).

Starting in January 2010 I joined Meraki, in San Francisco, as a member of the firmware team.

Advanced Topics in Distributed Systems, Advanced Topics in Network Security, Advanced Topics in Computer Security, Advanced Topics in Wireless Networks, Security and Privacy in Computing, Distributed Systems, Algorithms, Internet Protocols.

TA

Unix Systems Programming (Fall 2004), Intermediate Programming (Fall 2006), Compilers and Interpreters (Spring 2006, Spring 2007), Distributed Systems and Networks (Fall 2009). Also, I was fortunate to co-teach the Advanced Distributed Systems and Networks course in Fall 2008.

Back in Romania, I was TA at Operating Systems, Functional Programming, Data Structures and Algorithms, Algorithms Analysis, and Artificial Intelligence. I taught semesters 1, 2 and 3 as a Cisco CCNA instructor, which was a really nice and fun experience.
