TWENTY YEARS FROM NOW
YOU WILL BE MORE DISAPPOINTED
BY THE THINGS YOU DIDN'T DO
THAN BY THE ONES YOU DID.
SO THROW OFF THE BOWLINES.
SAIL AWAY FROM THE SAFE HARBOR.
CATCH THE TRADE WINDS IN YOUR SAILS.
EXPLORE. DREAM.
DISCOVER.

Service I am a fairly regular reviewer for Sensys, IPSN/SPOTS, and TOSN, and was a member of the SOSP'07 Shadow PC. I participate in the CSGSA as a member of Faculty Candidate Committee and have previously served as the systems-area graduate student on the CS graduate admissions committee. Along with Karl Chen and Dilip Antony Joseph, I used to co-organize the CS Systems Lunch.
