I am a research staff member at Computer Science Department of the University of British Columbia in Systopia Lab. I have recently graduated from UBC with an M.Sc. in Computer Science, where I was advised by Prof. Aastha Mehta and Prof. Mathias Lécuyer. Before, joining UBC, I was a research intern (remote) at University of Vienna working with Prof. Stefan Schmid.

I am broadly interested in Security and Privacy of Computer Systems. My research focuses on designing practical systems that are firmly rooted in solid theoretical foundations. In particular, I am interested in differential privacy, network side-channels, and private machine-learning.
