<p>I work on blockchain cryptography, computer and web security, privacy of data processing.<!---do research spanning cryptography, post-quantum and lattice-based security, multi-party protocols, privacy preserving data mining.---></p>
<p>I am now a Research Partner at <a href="https://a16zcrypto.com/research/">a16z crypto</a>.</p>
<p>I received my PhD in Computer Science from Stanford University advised by Prof. Dan Boneh. I then worked as a Research Scientist on the <a href="https://github.com/diem">Diem</a> blockchain project at Meta before joining a16z.</p>
