About me

I am currently a senior scientist in the Network and Communications Technologies group at Raytheon BBN Technologies in Cambridge MA since October 2011. I previously held a Chief Architect position at OHL since October 2009. I completed my M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in computer engineering from the University of New Mexico in 2006 and 2009 under the supervision of Professor Chaouki Abdallah.

Research Interests

My research interests lie at the intersection of computer networking and security. I am also broadly interested in architecture, and in network economics and strategic behavior.
