About Me

I am a passionate System Security Researcher, with interests encompassing several areas, such as security and privacy, computer systems, computer architectures, and applied cryptography. My most recent work explores topics in systems security, CPS/embedded systems security, hardware-assisted software integrity, and trusted computing, with the broader goal of enabling secure and trustworthy computing within our critical infrastructure and systems from the ground up.

I currently work as a Technical Staff member of the Secure Resilient Systens and Technology group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory. Previously, I worked as post-doctoral researcher at University of Waterloo in CrySP within the David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science. I worked under Prof. N. Asokan in the Secure Systems Group (SSG) of CrySP on topics of Platform Security and Security of ML-based Systems.

I received a Ph.D. from Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in 2025 in Computing and Information Sciences. My doctoral dissertation explored mechanisms to enable secure run-time auditing of program behavior on remotely-deployed resource-constrained embededd systems. These mechanisms are designed to guarantee a response even while under full software compromise, optimize for the lowest-end of devices in lengthy remote deployments, and provide automated remediation when source code is not available.

While studying at RIT, I was advised by Prof. Ivan De Oliveira Nunes and was a member of the CHAOS-Sec within the Global Cybersecurity Institute (CHAOS-Sec is now SPINS Research Group at UZH). Before I was accepted to RIT's Ph.D. program, I attended the University of Delaware, where I completed a Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering (M.S. ECE) in 2020 and a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering (B.S. CE) in 2019.
