Biography

I am an Assistant Professor at Purdue University in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department where I lead the Trustworthy Computing and Learning Systems (TCLS) lab. My research broadly focuses on addressing security and privacy issues in emerging computing systems. Most recently, I have been working on trustworthy machine learning, cryptographically secure privacy-preserving computation, and hardware acceleration of cryptographic protocols. I am particularly interested in solutions that span algorithm and protocol design and system optimizations to create end-to-end frameworks with real-world impact.
