I'm Krishna Ramamoorthy, a faculty member in Computer Science and Engineering at Santa Clara University. I'm currently a tenure-track Assistant Professor, and before this, I taught as a Lecturer at San Diego State University and worked as a System Architect at Kaiser Permanente IT. I earned my Ph.D. in Computational Science from UC Irvine in 2023, advised by Dr. Wei Wang, and hold prior degrees from CSUN and Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham University.
I strive to make meaningful contributions to research while fostering a learning environment built on curiosity, clarity, and care. Teaching and mentoring are at the heart of my academic life. You can view my full CV here.

Outside of work, I love playing fetch with my kitty cat Eevee (yes, he actually plays fetch!) and unwinding with a good board game — Catan is my all-time favorite. I truly enjoy aquascaping, and I also foster kittens whenever I can. These little side passions bring a lot of joy and balance to my life.
