Background
Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at North Carolina State University (tenured effective August 2025)
Courtesy appointment in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering
Member of IEEE and ACM
Research focuses on security, data privacy, and communication & networking challenges in future communication systems such as 5G (beyond) and quantum internet
Methodologies include theoretical approaches (e.g., optimization, control, statistics) and experimental techniques (e.g., reverse-engineering, system implementation, hardware-software co-design)
Mission: to build more secure and functional communication systems for the future connected world
