Biography

I am a second year PhD student at Johns Hopkins University under the wonderful supervision of both Abhishek Jain and Matt Green. I am in general interested in cryptography and its applications, more specifically, most of my research interests are at the intersection of cryptography with privacy, quantum computation and verifiable computation. I am particularly interested in designing protocols with minimal trust requirements. This summer I am also collaborating with the Ethereum Research team to build, attack and study practical verifiable delay functions (VDFs).
