To the Admissions Committee,

It is my genuine pleasure to recommend Elena Marchetti for doctoral study in
computer science. I have known Elena for three years, first as a student in my
graduate systems course and then as an undergraduate researcher in my group, and
she is among the most capable young systems thinkers I have taught.

Elena joined my lab with an unusual asset, real operational experience, and she
put it to immediate use. Where most students treat fault injection as an
afterthought, she asked why our tools could not reproduce the incidents she had
personally debugged. That question became a senior thesis in which she modeled a
replication protocol formally and used a solver to expose a recovery stall that
had eluded conventional testing. The work was strong enough that an open-source
project adopted her fix.

Beyond her technical ability, Elena is a careful writer and a generous
collaborator. She mentored two junior students through their first paper and
raised the standard of every group meeting she attended. I have no doubt she
will thrive in a research environment and become a leader in reliability
research.

I recommend her without reservation and would gladly answer any questions.
