I obtained my MS in computer science from the Manning College of Information and Computer Sciences (CICS) at UMass Amherst in December of 2025. I also obtained my BS in computer science from UMass Amherst in May of 2024.
In my undergraduate years, I was heavily involved in many organizations:
- HackUMass is one of the largest hackathons in the Pioneer Valley, taking place on the UMass Amherst campus annually. It is an entirely student-run hackathon. I was an organizer for the ninth iteration of HackUMass in 2023 and became the co-director for the tenth iteration in 2024.
- UMass Cybersecurity Club is one of the largest clubs within CICS, emphasizing the education of cybersecurity throughout the undergraduate and graduate level and providing meaningful opportunities for student involvement. I was part of the executive board during 2023 and 2024.
- Women in Cybersecurity (WiCyS) @ UMass Amherst is the UMass Amherst chapter of WiCyS, an organization dedicated to recruit, retain, and advance women in cybersecurity. During 2024, I was a student advisor and helped establish this chapter at our university.
During May 2024, I received a Certificate of Recognition in Student Leadership Award by CICS. I also received a UMass Senior Leadership Award, an award only granted to ten UMass students each year, by Dean Laura Haas of CICS.
I am most interested in cybersecurity (reverse engineering, binary exploitation, preserving privacy mechanisms), machine learning/artificial intelligence, and the intersection of those two. I also enjoy natural language processing and web development. Outside of academia, I enjoy art and graphic design.
This is my personal website that I will use for dumping my blogs, projects, write-ups, etc.
