I'm a PhD student (now candidate) at UC Santa Cruz working in the CRSS and advised by Professor Darrell Long and Professor Andi Quinn.

My research aims to provide a portable, non-intrusive, and efficient secure deletion solution for existing systems and applications. My technical interests mostly lie in systems programming, but I'm also a fan of programming language theory and reverse engineering.

My non-technical interests are playing the piano/cello, transcribing music (that I will probably never publish online), climbing, reading, and sleeping. I dream of expanding this set of interests, but sadly find that I currently lack the time management and/or energy to invest in the additional interests meaningfully.
