I’m a PhD student in Computer Science at Georgia Tech. I’m currently working with Prof. Hyesoon Kim in the HPArch Lab at Georgia Tech. My main area of interest is architectural security and computer architecture in general.

Research

I’m interested in working at the intersection of computer architecture and hardware security, specifically in the area of side-channel attacks and defenses as well as memory safety. My recent work involves mitigating timing based side-channel attacks on the interconnect using a randomization based system-level approach. This paper is currently under submission at a conference awaiting reviews. I am currently also looking into GPU accelerated RowHammer attacks and their defenses, as well as potential defenses for PACMAN-style speculative execution attacks.
