I am a PhD candidate at the University of California - San Diego in
the Computer Science and Engineering department. I am broadly
interested in understanding security and privacy via an
empirical lens. My current research
focuses on using large-scale empirical analyses to understand
users' security behaviors, but I've previously used empiricism
to understand the "Hack for Hire" market as well as web feature
deprecation via the perspective of Chrome.
At UC San Diego, I am advised by Stefan Savage and
Geoff Voelker,
and I work in the Sysnet,
CryptoSec,
and CNS research groups.
Prior to starting my PhD, I completed my BSE at the
University of Michigan.
