I am a Senior Principal Security Software Architect in the Competence Center Crypto & Security at NXP Semiconductors.

Before joining NXP in 2015, I was a research assistant and Ph.D. student at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Sciences at Ruhr-Universität Bochum, working with Prof. Dr. Tim Güneysu and Prof. Dr. Christof Paar. My research focused on secure and efficient implementation of post-quantum cryptography on embedded systems (microcontrollers and FPGAs).

I am a co-author of Classic McEliece, a code-based key encapsulation mechanism submitted to NIST’s Post-Quantum Cryptography Standardization Project and currently undergoing standardization at ISO.
