As a Postdoctoral Researcher at COSIC, I've had the chance to dive deep into privacy-preserving cryptographic primitives for distributed systems, building on the strong foundation I developed during my PhD at KU Leuven. My work has always been focused on enhancing privacy and security within these networks. I've also had the opportunity to broaden my horizons as an intern at Mysten labs and as a Visiting Researcher at Charles University in Prague and through a Master's in Secure Telecommunication Engineering from Sharif University of Technology. These experiences, along with my programming skills in Python, C++, and Rust, have prepared me to make meaningful contributions to open-source projects and continue pushing the boundaries of privacy-enhancing technologies.
