My research interests include computer systems and networking with an emphasis
on network security. I am currently involved in theoretical and empirical
studies on the dynamics of Internet malware.

In a nutshell...
I am a grad student working with Stefan Savage and Geoff Voelker as part of the Systems and Networking group
in the Department of Computer Science and
Engineering at UCSD.
From 2001-2004, I was an undergrad at the University of Maryland, College Park,
where I earned my bachelor degrees in Computer Science and Mathematics.
