I’m broadly interested in computer security and applied cryptography, especially techniques that enable Secure Decentralized Systems, a novel class of computer systems with unique security properties (such as transparency, verifiability, decentralized trust and governance).
My research aims to advance the technical foundation of decentralized systems, analyze the security of real-world deployments, and build practical tools to support applications in socially important domains. I elaborate on this vision on the research page.
I’m also affiliated with IC3, Center for Distributed Confidential Computing (CDCC) and Center for Algorithms, Data, and Market Design at Yale (CADMY).
At Yale, I teach Intro to Blockchain and Real-World Cryptography.
