I am a Postdoctoral Scholar at the University of Chicago, working with Grant Ho and generously funded by a Data Science Institute fellowship. My research aims to develop a stronger science of computer security, using a mix of empirical techniques to study real-world settings. Recently my work has focused on the security weaknesses of organizations, and includes surfacing new design constraints, challenging accepted wisdom about best practices, and developing next-generation approaches for defenders.

Previously I completed my Ph.D. at Stanford University, advised by Zakir Durumeric, and my undergraduate degree at the University of Washington, advised by Franziska Roesner and Tadayoshi Kohno.
