I'm currently a PhD pre-candidate in the Software Systems Group, Computer Science and Engineering Division at the University of Michigan. My supervisor is Dr Atul Prakash. I'm primarily interested in security including, but not limited to, malware polymorphism, propagation, attack vectors and covert channels. Security is an interesting research field because you often find yourself in unknown territories. I like to approach the security problems more from the attacker's point of view, rather than defender's. As what Sun Tzu said, "Know thy self, know thy enemy. A thousand battles fought, a thousand victories."

Prior to my enrollment to the University of Michigan, I worked as a Security Software R&D engineer in Singapore. My job scope included penetration testing, security software analysis and malware analysis.s
