I am a second-year PhD student at CMU, working with Aayush Jain and Riad Wahby. Before that, I got my MA in Math at the University of Michigan, where I worked with Paul Grubbs. I did my undergrad in Math & CS at Columbia University.
Research Interests: My research is in theoretical and applied cryptography, with a focus on post-quantum cryptography, secure multiparty computation, and zero-knowledge proof systems.Preprints
