About Me

I am a fourth-year Ph.D. student and Dean's Fellow at Arizona State University. My research focus is on adversarially-resilient cooperative systems, especially in distributed ad hoc networks, as well as techniques for privacy preservation and decentralized autonomous decision-making. I am the founder of the Upsilon Pi Epsilon ACM Honors Society at ASU, and created the CIDSE Graduate Student Mentorship Program to help new graduate students adapt to the academic environment. Prior to joining CASCADE, I worked in industry for 8 years, serving as the Chief Technology Officer for a medical software startup, where my key focuses were on data security and system scalability.
