Hi! I'm Paul.
I'm a Ph.D. student at UCLA working with Amit Sahai.
I finished my undergraduate degrees
majoring in computer science, mathematics, and
statistics at the University of Pennsylvania where
I was fortunate to work with Nadia
Heninger.
Generally, I'm interested in
both applied and theoretical aspects of
cryptography.
