You have found my site! :) I am a research scientist and engineer specialized in Cryptography with special interests in all aspects of Cryptology such as, cryptographic proofs, design of symmetric primitives, and cryptanalysis. My background is in mathematics, physics, and computer engineering and computer science and engineering. I have an innate love for abstract algebra applications of cryptography and networking security (L5/3) and routing protocolos & algorithms. I am particularly interested in cryptographic proofs from PIOP, homomorphic encryption, and post-quantum cryptography research and development in all domains of implementation (hardware, firmware, and software). Please see my résumé regaring qualifications, work, and projects. My initial background is in engineering, applied mathematics, programming, and French & Italian studies.

I have very strong background in different areas, such as systems programming, data structures, circuirt design (analog & digital), embedded system design, networking (TCP/IP protocol stack), information security, applied mathematics (e.g., cryptography, qRNG constructions), development work (e.g., web applications using different architectures, such as P2P, client-server), cloud (e.g., IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, BaaS, containers, microservices, k8s), and application-specific system design, simulating, prototyping, and testing, in the hardware, software, and firmware domains. For example, x86 compiler or the Montgomery-type reduction-free modular multiplier from my thesis which is a the most costly operation in both modern and PQC schemes as well as the corresponding attack vectors.

Overall, I have a very strong affinity for mathematics, algorithms, and learning languages. I also have experience with quantum algorithms and computation. I am passionate about the Internet across all layers with particular interests for routing and crypto. I love to learn new things and share what I learn. You may find my CMPE 209 notes in the above links and step by step DJA explanation. My background experience and passion enable me to teach myself anything and accomplish anything I set my mind to. I love to drive alone and enjoy meaningful collaborations. This March 2025 I executed my own LLC, Cryptologia and accepted a fully funded three year doctoral program in Palaiseau, France approximately one hour from the Paris. After demonstrating a capacity that exceeded the thesis directors and strongly my proposed thesis on Symmetric-Key-Based Post-Quantum Advanced Cryptography, I decided to leave the prestigious French institute of Télécom Paris in 2025 to pursue independent research in the USA and instead, allow the opportunity for honorary PhD. I have Erdős #4 & Einstein #6 :)
