Incoming PhD @ NYU
I'm an incoming PhD student at NYU, to be supervised by Benedikt Bunz and Joseph Bonneau. My research interests are broad, primarily focused on building secure platforms using novel cryptographic primitives, especially SNARKs. I also closely collaborate with Ian Miers at UMD.
I've had the privilege of doing research internships with Prof Bryan Ford at EPFL, Prof Ian Miers at UMD, and Prof Ghassan Karame at RUB.
