I am a postdoc at Aarhus University in Denmark hosted by Ivan Dagmaard working in the area of information security and cryptography. Before this I was a PhD researcher at KU Leuven in Belgium advised by Bart Preneel, where I graduated in December 2010. During my PhD I was particular interested in leakage resilient cryptography. In an earlier life, I was working as a business & technology consultant mainly for the financial sector, and was studying Computer Science & Business at University of Mannheim in Germany. Please find more information about me here.
