I am a security researcher specializing in cyber-physical systems (CPS) and quantum computing, as well as applied post-quantum cryptography and digital twinning. By developing high-fidelity testing environments to uncover CPS weaknesses, I work to protect next-generation technologies from rapidly evolving, quantum-enabled threats. My research especially focuses on post-quantum security for connected vehicles, as well as exposing and mitigating vulnerabilities in the wireless protocols they rely on.
