I joined the College of Computing at Georgia Tech as an Assistant Professor in the Fall of 2008. I earned my Ph.D and M.S. in Computer Science and Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University in 2008 and 2004, respectively, and my B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Richmond in 2002. I am currently a member of the Georgia Tech Information Security Center (GTISC). My research focuses primarily on security in cellular networks. In particular, I have investigated the problems that arise when such systems are interconnected with the Internet. However, I am also interested in the systems challenges of applied cryptography and security for the Internet, mobile devices and wireless systems. In general, I am curious in learning about how secure systems are designed, constructed and broken. I am currently looking for strong students with an interest in network security. Students should have a strong technical background and be comfortable with systems work. If you are not a student at Georgia Tech and are interested in my research, please apply to the program.
