Education
  • Ph.D.; Postdoctoral Associate; Glenn and Susanne Culler Assistant Professor; Associate Professor
Background
  • A cryptographer interested in proposing theoretically grounded solutions for problems inspired from the real world. Recently, focused on exploring the feasibility and infeasibility of cryptographic notions equipped with quantum capabilities. Specific research areas include unclonable cryptography, quantum pseudorandomness, and watermarking generative AI content.
Miscellany
  • Grateful to the National Science Foundation for supporting his research!
