Skills and Interests • C, C++, Java, Perl, Bash and PHP Developed a P2P filesharing application with 32/64 bit interoperability and created a mutual exclusion library in C; implemented a (subset of) C compiler with C++ (Bison and Lex); Java experience using generics and interfaces within the Eclipse framework; data extraction and collation with Perl, basic Bash scripting and some familiarity with PHP. • BIND, SVN, Git, patch/quilt Configured and deployed a BIND DNS server at the Georgia Tech Research Institute, employed patch and quilt to maintain Debian packages and utilized Subversion and Git on collaborative school/research research projects. • Security Tools Employed and developed documentation for an array of network/OS security tools at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI); employed various cross-compilers in embedded device research. • Random Interests Functional programming (Haskell), Distributed systems programming (Erlang), microkernels (GNU Hurd) and program correctness/verification.
Experiences • Electronic Systems Laboratory (ELSYS) at GTRI
Summer 2009...
– Identified vulnerabilities on the GTRI network and worked to develop an operating system for network security testing. – Configured network internals such as routing tables, DNS servers and DHCP; worked with and helped develop documentation for various network/OS security tools. • Dynamic Compilation
Spring 2008 – Spring 2009
– Instrumented and analyzed bytecode and helped develop new program optimization techniques. – Worked with the C++ Standard Template Library (STL) and the Low Level Virtual Machine (LLVM) framework. • Embedded Security
Summer 2009
– Sought improvement in the security of cellular devices and networks with modern secure routing techniques and OS virtualization. – Worked at the systems level with Google’s Android operating system; gained experience working with a variety of toolchains and/or cross-compilers on embedded devices.
