Tareq Mahmood
Hi, Tareq here. I am a first-year PhD student
in the Department of Computer Sciences
at the University of Wisconsin - Madison.
I am fortunate to be advised by Professor Shivaram Venkataraman.
My research interests lie at the intersection of ML, data and systems.
My current research focuses on integrating LLMs to data systems and understanding patterns in large-scale training.
