About Me
I am a sixth year PhD candidate in the Cybersecurity and Privacy Institute at Northeastern University where I work with Cristina Nita-Rotaru. I'm interested in the security of internet protocols. My research has mostly focused on validating the correctness of security-aware protocols from DNS to software-defined networks. My thesis work focuses on understanding emergent properties of Layer 2 blockchain protocols through the lens of systems security. I am an engineer by training, and worked as a software engineer for five years at both IBM and a since-acquired Silicon Valley startup, and rely on my engineering experience to design robust implementations for all my projects.
