Hello! I am a cybersecurity researcher building tools and processes to protect user privacy. I am currently a Privacy Engineer in the Comcast Cyber Security research team helping build privacy threat modeling processes. I hold a PhD in Security Informatics from Indiana University Bloomington where I worked on privacy-preserving technologies in conversational platforms with Professor L. Jean Camp. My research interests are in inclusive and usable privacy.

I have been a Google Public Policy fellow and a co-lead researcher in a National Science Foundation multi-year investigation into IoT privacy. I have also been involved in teaching, research, and service at Indiana University Bloomington.

I also hold a Bachelor of Technology degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from West Bengal Univerity of Technology, where I got introduced to cryptography through Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata.

Outside of work, I like traveling (with lots of hiking) and reading manga. I do not have a lot of pictures yet, but some of the trips from last three years are on Instagram.
