Gina Yuan
I'm a 5th year Computer Science PhD candidate at Stanford. I previously studied Computer Science at MIT (B.S.'19, M.Eng.'19) with a concentration in systems.
I am interested in building systems and designing algorithms for networks. My current research involves designing Internet middleboxes that can provide performance enhancements even when protocols (such as QUIC) are fully encrypted, as well as algorithms for path-aware congestion control or fast hash table lookups in the dataplane.

Personal
- I race bikes with Alto Velo Racing Team and Stanford Cycling.
- I competed with MIT Sport Taekwondo in my undergrad, and led the team to a national title in 2019.
- I ran Battlecode in 2018 and 2017. It was featured in Hacker News, Vice, and The Tech. We also hosted an IAmA that reached the front page of Reddit.
