About Me
I am currently a Founding Engineer at Aptos Labs, working on layer 1 blockchain technology. Before this, I was a Research Scientist working at Novi (Meta/Facebook) on the Diem blockchain (formerly Libra). I completed my PhD at Imperial College London in the Large-scale Data and Systems (LSDS) group and the Centre for Cryptocurrency Research and Engineering (IC3RE). I'm also the primary author and lead for the Teechain Network, a secure high-performance off-chain payment network for blockchains. Under Prof. Peter Pietzuch my PhD focused on improving the security and privacy of large-scale distributed systems using trusted hardware. Most recently, I have focused on improving the security, privacy and performance of blockchains and cryptocurrencies.

Instead they put it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.” Luke 11:33 NIV
