I hold a PhD in computer science, with focus on Cybersecurity, from Northeastern University in Boston, MA. Currently, I am working at Google in Mountain View, CA as a Security Software Engineer, where I am fighting Android Malware.

My research is concerned with improving the security of computer systems through application of secure design principles and integration of defensive techniques such as attack detection, prevention, and recovery. Some domains I am active in are conducting web security & privacy measurement, static & dynamic program analysis, binary analysis (e.g, reverse engineering, exploit development), and malware detection (e.g., Botnet, Ransomware).
