Hi. I'm Juncheng (Jason) Yang.

I am a Ph.D. student working on Computer Systems at Carnegie Mellon University. Previously I obtained my master degree from Emory University working with Prof. Ymir Vigfusson on smart cache. Before this, I obtained my bachelor degree from Nanjing University.
My current research interests are building efficient and reliable computer systems.

Computer Science

My main research interests are systems, focusing on how to build efficient and reliable systems. Besides, my general interests spans from databases, blockchain to machine learning.

Photography

I like travelling and taking photos. I have been to China, US, Iceland, Japan, Germany, Switzerland, France. I am excited to explore more places. Check Here for some of my photos.
