Engineering post-quantum security and hybrid infrastructure.
I design PQC crypto-agility frameworks, simulate quantum-secure networks, and evaluate hybrid quantum architectures against hard engineering constraints.
My interest in Physics became apparent in the middle school itself when the subjects hadn't even trifurcated into bio/chem/phy. With a deep fascination with outer-space and the sub-atomic world, I leaned towards Cosmology and Particle Physics - which remain my interest till day and absorb some of my free time. I wanted to be a wave: indulged in multiple domains and fields at the same time; but life forced me to be a particle, and so I chose Quantum Tech.
I approach quantum information science through the lens of computational physics, systems engineering, and adversarial research. While theoretical protocols assume ideal conditions, real-world deployment requires navigating noise, hardware limitations, and physical security vulnerabilities. To obtain the middle ground between the threat of quantum computers and the obstacles to it, I decided to dedicate my time to PQC: securing against HNDL threat, as well as designing the very strategies of building up the talent pool.
