You have reached my homepage at the Dept. of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Texas at Arlington.

I co-direct the iSec research lab, and I have research interests in security and privacy. In particular, I am interested in systems for providing network privacy, location privacy, security and privacy in ubiquitous computing, and secure P2P systems.
