Hey there! I'm a PhD student in the Computer Science Department at CMU, and am advised by Bryan Parno. My research focuses on improving the security of practical software systems in fundamental ways by exploring the intersection of the fields of Security, Systems and Programming Languages. You can find some of my publications here.

When not working on research, I enjoy playing hacking contests called CTFs (as a member of PPP; and previously with InfoSecIITR that I co-founded while I was at IITR), board games, writing, reading, music, open source development, competitive coding, and more.

Some people know me better by the handle "f0xtr0t".

The best way to reach me is by email (see the sidebar for my email ID).
