I am a PhD student in the Computer Science department at North Carolina State University, specializing in software security. I completed my Master’s in Computer Science at NC State in May 2025 and hold a Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology from Pune Institute of Computer Technology, where I graduated with distinction.
My passion lies in software security, software engineering, and programming languages, and my academic journey has been driven by a deep fascination with computers and a desire to continuously expand my knowledge while staying at the forefront of industry innovations.
Currently, I am conducting research in the Wolfpack Security and Privacy Lab under Dr. Laurie Williams, working on software supply chain security and risk-based assessment of software credentials (with a paper submitted to ICSE 2026). Alongside my research, I bring two years of professional experience as a software developer and one year of academic research experience.
Looking ahead, I aspire to become a research scientist specializing in security. I am actively seeking internship opportunities that will allow me to apply my expertise, engage with industry challenges, and further strengthen the security of software systems.
