I am a motivated MS/PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of New Mexico (UNM), Albuquerque, NM. I work under the advisement of Afsah Anwar in the Beyond Defense Lab. I completed my undergraduate studies in Computer Science at UNM in Spring 2025.

My research interests lie at the intersection of Security, Privacy, Internet Measurement, and Machine Learning for Security. I have collaborated with researchers at CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security, the University of Louisiana, and the University of Arizona.
