Welcome to my personal website! I am a Research Scientist at Google. I work on lattice-based cryptography, especially its use in homomorphic encryption and other advanced cryptographic primitives, and secure computation in general. I'm also interested in using formal methods in cryptography, including symbolic techniques and formal models for secure computation protocols.
I graduated with a Ph.D. in CS from UC San Diego in 2021, studying cryptography. I was very fortunate to be advised by Daniele Micciancio.
Prior to UCSD, I graduated with a Bachelor degree in CS/Pure Math and a Master's degree in CS from the University of Waterloo, advised by Janusz Brzozowski. In Waterloo, I studied descriptional complexity problems on finite automata and regular languages.
