About me

I am a research expert at COSIC, KU Leuven, Belgium. I received my PhD in Information Coding under Prof Jan-Åke Larsson's supervision at department of Electrical Engineering (ISY), Linköping University, Sweden, in 2013. The focus of my research was on authentication, quantum key distribution, and Universal hash functions. Here is my dissertation. After postdoctoral research on privacy-preserving biometric authentication at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, I joined COSIC as a research fellow in 2015.

I have 5 granted and several pending patents and am interested in all aspects of cryptography, information security, and privacy.
