Introduction

Hi, this is Maleeha. I am a PhD Candidate at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) co-advised by Deepak Vasisht and Indy Gupta. Before here, I had the time of my life fighting dragons with my friends and getting my undergraduate degree at the Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS). I also worked with Dr. Ihsan and Zafar Ayyub Qazi during my time at LUMS.

I really like distributed systems and am currently working on (re)designing systems that have some use-case related, predictable information available about them.
