Joon Ha Kim

At San Antonio (Dec. 2024)

Hello, I am Joon Ha Kim, a first year PhD student at UT Austin. I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Daehyeok Kim.

Before UT Austin, I completed my undergraduate degree at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) and was advised by Prof. Dongsu Han.

My research interest lies in making efficient and fast networked systems whether it be through optimizing applications, designing new systems, or in-network processing.
