I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Kent State University, where I also earned my M.S. in Computer Science and B.S. in Applied Mathematics. My academic journey has been driven by a passion for tackling foundational problems in distributed computing and systems design.

My research focuses on the design and analysis of fault-tolerant distributed algorithms, consensus protocols (including Byzantine fault tolerance), blockchain systems, and peer-to-peer networks. I have developed simulation frameworks and proposed novel mechanisms for handling churn, shard validation, and malicious behavior in decentralized environments.

I’m also actively exploring adjacent areas in artificial intelligence and optimization, particularly how they intersect with system resilience and adaptability. I'm always open to new collaborations and enjoy applying core theory to real-world system design challenges.
