My Research.

I study how the modern web and the networks beneath it can be attacked — and how to make them safer. My work centers on web and network security: evaluating real-world systems, finding where they break, and building defenses that can mitigate common and even novel attack vectors.

What I Work On.

My research sits at the intersection of cybersecurity and the systems that run the internet. I'm drawn to problems where hands-on evaluation and measurement are required to study software vulnerabilities.

Right now I'm focused on web security and network security — studying browsers, protocols, and the trust models assumed by today's infrastructure. I bring an applied math background to the work, which shapes how I think about modeling threats and reasoning about guarantees.
