The Short Version
My research interests lie basically in Cryptography and Private Computation. The cool kids refer to the broad area as information assurance. Lately, I have also been interested in the hardness of approximation. In what now feels like a previous life, I was deeply into algebraic geometry. I hope to graduate in 6 months to a year. When I do graduate, it'll be my second Ph.D--I also have a doctorate in Mathematics from the Indian Institute of Technology, Chennai.
