Hi! I'm Paul. I'm a first year Ph.D. student at UCLA. I finished my undergraduate degrees majoring in computer science, mathematics, and statistics at the University of Pennsylvania where I was fortunate to work on research projects with Nadia Heninger. My undergraduate research experiences include implementing and designing bignum parallelized computational number theory algorithms related to cryptography and theoretical exploration of lattice reduction algorithms. Generally, I'm interested in both applied and theoretical aspects of cryptography.
My other hobbies include alpine skiing, running, yoga, listening to podcasts, drinking hot chocolate, and making a variety of oatmeal. I am also fond of animals.
