About Me

I am currently working at Sandia National Laboratories in Cyber Security and AI. I am also currently a Ph.D student at the University of Washington Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering doing research in Cyber Security and Molecular Informatics under Dr. Yoshi Kohno and Dr. Jeff Nivala.

I completed my M.S and B.S in Computer Science at Missouri University of Science and Technology with my thesis in Man-in-the-Middle attacks on MQTT networks using Language Models to craft network packets.

At Missouri S&T I was heavily involved in projects across campus. I worked on and led MegaMinerAI, participated in Capture-the-Flag(CTF) competitions, started the hackathon program, started MoData, and founded the Asian American Association at Missouri S&T. Outside of school I was briefly involved in Rolla government helping university related bills to be passed using data science.
