About

Hello! I am a PhD Candidate at the VUSec group at Vrije Universitiet Amsterdam, currently advised by Klaus von Gleissenthall. My research mostly focuses on the intersection of formal verification and security, with a particular interest in assembly language and type-systems.

I am currently working on a project that aims to bring zero-knowledge proofs to the world of binaries. It mostly involves providing a type-checking proof for typed binaries in zero-knowledge, by utilizing zkSNARK proofs. Our goal is to be able to provide safety proofs for proprietary applications, that are easy and fast to check by a end-user.
