About Me

I am an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at University of Illinois at Chicago. I build systems that incorporate cryptographic protocols to solve real-world problems. My research lies in the intersection of cryptography, systems and theory. As part of my research I build secure databases and cloud computing technologies, end-to-end encrypted messaging applications, and cryptographic tools for autonomous vehicle communication.

Before joining UIC, I was a postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Computer Science at Duke University working with Prof. Michael Reiter. I obtained my PhD from Stony Brook University where I was advised by Prof. Radu Sion. Even before that I obtained my undergraduate degree in Computer Science from Jadavpur University, India

My current research involves answering the following questions (among other things)

• How do we make smart vehicle technologies more robust against adversarial interference?
• How do we make secure messaging services truly private and censorship-resilient?
• How do we design efficient cryptographic tools for statistical frameworks?
