Research



I am a third year PhD student in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Brigham Young University (BYU), advised by Philip Lundrigan. I work in the NET Lab on topics related to Internet of Things (IoT) resilience (i.e. security, privacy, robustness, and reliability). Before starting my PhD, I completed my B.Sc. in Computer Engineering at BYU in 2021.

My research interests include sensor networks, IoT resilience, and systems engineering. I am particularly interested in how these fields can leveraged to monitor and improve the environment.
