Cryptology & Privacy, PhD Candidate

After graduating with a degree in applied mathematics from Chalmers in Gothenburg, Sweden, i started here at ISEC as a doctoral student in the fall of 2022. My research mainly concerns differential privacy, and more specifically its interplay with other cryptographic techniques, such as multi-party computation and zero-knowledge proofs. Concretely, my theoretical work is about relations between statistical and computational differential privacy and on the theory about random variable commitment schemes and certified differential privacy. My applied work is about how to efficiently sample noise (as needed for differential privacy) either certifiably or jointly between multiple parties. I currently take part in the teaching of PETS and MFC and supervise students in ISW as well as bachelor's and master's theses. In case you have questions about any of those courses or are interested in a project related to differential privacy or mathematical aspects of cryptography more generally, feel free to send me an email or just drop by my office.
