 My Image

I'm a Post-doctoral Scholar at the Theory Group at the Department of Computer Science of Stanford University.  Before I was a PhD student at the Information Security and Cryptography Group at the Computer Science Department of Saarland University, Germany, and studied Math and Computer Science at the University of Karlsruhe, Germany (now Karlsruhe Institute of Technology).
