I am a Ph.D. student in the Networked Systems program at UC Irvine, working with Prof. Athina Markopoulou.
I am currently exploring research topics related to privacy in web and mobile systems (such as ad technology and tracking). I also have research experience in image watermarking and deep learning security.
