About
I care about security, cryptography, and how modern networks actually fail in practice—especially as 5G and massive IoT deployments change the threat surface. My PhD work focused on AI/ML-based intrusion detection tailored to 3GPP 5G-IoT traffic and core-network constraints.
Outside of pure security research, I enjoy robotics and embodied systems: drones, ROS-based stacks, and hands-on projects that mix electronics, control, and software.
