I am currently in my first year as a CSE Ph.D. student at the University of Washington. Broadly speaking, my research interests include security, privacy, and systems. My advisor is Tadayoshi Kohno.

I received my B.S. in Computer Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin in May 2008, and then took a year to teach English at a high school in Mulhouse, France and to travel around Europe. This past summer I did my second internship at Amazon.com, on the security team.

Undergraduate Research

My undergraduate research was focused in computer architecture. Advised by Doug Burger, I designed and implemented a load dependence predictor targeted at distributed microarchitectures.

You can find my undergraduate honors thesis about these Counting Dependence Predictors here.
