I'm a first-year PhD student in cryptography at the Georgia Institute of Technology, where I am advised by Prof. Vassilis Zikas. My research interests include secure multi-party computation, anonymous credentials, and zero-knowledge proofs. Before starting my PhD, I received a Bachelor's in Computer Science and Applied Math from Brown University, where I was fortunate to work with Prof. Anna Lysyanskaya.

Non-Interactive Threshold Mercurial Signatures with Applications to Threshold DAC
Summary
Mercurial signatures are a type of randomizable signature helpful in constructing delegatable anonymous credentials (DAC). We build on an existing mercurial signature (Mir et al., 2023) to construct the first non-interactive threshold mercurial signature. We then further modify this construction to realize threshold DAC.
