I am a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Maryland. My advisor is Professor Bobby Bhattacharjee. My research focuses on securing networks and building reliable network services.

In fall 2008 I spent a semester at UCLA attending the IPAM program on Internet multiresolution analysis.
