:: Teaching

In 2008, I co-taught a capstone project course at Notre Dame University along with Prof. Aaron Striegel and and Prof. Christian Poellabauer, and defined the Motorola Labs challenge project. The collaboration was fun and here is an impressive demo created by one of the student teams.

In the past, I have TA'ed and lectured at UCI, mostly for the Operating Systems course. I have experience in creating class projects, designing exams and grading.

  • Principles of Operating Systems
  • Introduction to Computer Organization
