I'm a post-doctoral computer science researcher at Stanford and a CIS junior affiliate scholar. I completed my Ph.D at UT Austin advised by Vitaly Shmatikov. I study information privacy and security, and moonlight in policy.
My doctoral research exposed the problems with data anonymization. My thesis, in a sentence, is that the level of anonymity that consumers expect—and companies claim to provide—in published or outsourced databases is fundamentally unrealizable.
I'm currently on the program committees of Oakland 2012, SESOC 2012, W2SP 2012 and PETS 2012. I'm supposed to have a sentence here suggesting you submit your papers there, like you hadn't thought of that already ;-)
