I am a strong enthusiast for security and privacy, working with Professors Stefan Savage and Geoffrey Voelker in the Sysnet and CryptoSec research groups. As an empiricist, my work primarily focuses on solving real-world problems that users face. Specifically, I am interested in measuring security and privacy issues and building systematic solutions. More recently, I've been into the intricacies of Security Operations, Enterprise Security, Cybercrime, Technology Abuse, and Emerging Technologies.
Before joining UC San Diego, I was a Goldwater, Mark Mensink, and a Hilldale Scholar at the University of Wisconsin-Madison under Professors Rahul Chatterjee and Kassem Fawaz in the MadS&P research group. There, I worked on developing systematic solutions for Password Guessing Attacks, Privacy Label Inconsistencies, Network Censorship, and Technology Abuse.
