About Me
I am a third-year PhD student at Ruhr University Bochum under the supervision of Eike Kiltz and Peter Schwabe. My research focuses on provable security with a special interest in lattice-based constructions. In particular, I worked on the design and analysis of signature schemes and authenticated key encapsulation mechanisms.
In the fall of 2024, I visited the University of Washington to work with Stefano Tessaro.
