I am the Angel Jordan Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University. I have courtesy appointments in the Computer Science Department and the Machine Learning Department and am a part of CyLab. My group’s research focus is on the security and privacy implications of data transparency and sharing. As part of this focus, my research interests span the algorithmic and theoretical foundations of distributed systems, machine learning, and privacy-enhancing technologies. I am also a co-director of the Upanzi Network alongside Assane Gueye, and a co-director of the Initiative for Cryptocurrencies and Contracts.
