the collapse is coming soon. RCB bottling is a constant every season😋🙏

Currently working in the File Systems Lab at Stony Brook where we're building a Secure Archival System using information theoretically secure encryption schemes. The project is Rust based and we're implementing our own secret sharing libraries.

Open to Remote, Hybrid, In-office

With my final semester coming up, its time to put up an open to work post and put my hat in the market.

Happy new year folks :) 🎊

I just completed "Historian Hysteria" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/1
