I am a 6th-year PhD candidate in the Computer Science Department at Rutgers University, under the guidance of Professor Muthu Muthukrishnan and Professor Danfeng Yao. My research interests are rooted in algorithms, combinatorics, graph theory, data mining, and cryptography, and my projects have included information diffusion, anomaly detection in communication networks, anonymity in data publishing, and privacy and security in outsourced databases. My thesis work has been supported by a DHS Career Development Fellowship through CCICADA (the Command, Control, and Interoperability Center for Advanced Data Analysis).
