About
I’m a sophomore computer engineering student at Notre Dame and a research assistant in the Data Security and Privacy Lab under Prof. Taeho Jung. My research looks at the structure and risks of trusted execution environments: I collect attestation quotes from Intel TDX confidential VMs, study what their platform certificates reveal, and measure factors such as colocation predictability and cost scaling on CVM identifiers across new quotes and reboots.
For most of 2026, I was also part of the Wireless Institute’s RadioHound project, where I built a workflow for writing FPGA hardware in Python and a harness for checking the FPGA’s spectrum math against software. On my own time, I built Passagework, a practice tool I made for my orchestral auditions.
Those auditions were for the Notre Dame Symphony Orchestra, where I play violin. Outside of music, I write a biweekly opinion column for The Observer on faith, compassion, and intersectionality on college campuses, and my work has also appeared in The Wall Street Journal’s Future View.
Closer to home, I represent Knott Hall in student government, where I work on campus life and student policy. I also work in the ticket office at the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center and serve as a student ambassador for the Sister Thea Bowman Center.
