Short bio

I was a post-doc at the University of Minnesota Department of Computer Science and Engineering, studying distributed network security, peer-to-peer systems, privacy and anonymity, and applied cryptography. I'm privileged to have worked with Nick Hopper and Yongdae Kim.
I received my Bachelor's of Science in Biochemistry and Neuroscience (with a Computer Science minor) in 2003, and a Master's degree in Computer Science in 2008, both from the University of Minnesota. I received my doctorate in Computer Science from the University of Minnesota in June of 2010. My dissertation topic was censorship resistance against a strong adversary. A draft is available here.
Beginning in August 2010 I started work as an Assistant Professor at Kansas State University in Manhattan, KS. Further updates will be available on my new home page there.

My research interests are:

Distributed system security
Privacy and anonymity
Peer-to-peer systems
Network security
Usability in security
Operating system security
Applied cryptography
Medical device security
Security, public policy, and cyberlaw

I speak the following languages:
