Sasha Ames completed his M.S. degree working with Prof. Ethan Miller on the design and implementation of the Linking File System, as part of the Storage Class Memories project. He later created the QUASAR file systems query language. He is now working at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and pursuing his Ph.D.
