Graduate: PhD Student

"Receiving the CAMLIS student scholarship in 2025 was an incredibly rewarding experience. I had the unique opportunity to observe first-hand the interactions between Red and Blue teams, listening to expert discussions on strategy, defense, and attack dynamics in real-world cybersecurity scenarios. Engaging with these experts deepened my understanding of adversarial thinking and strengthened my motivation to pursue impactful research in machine learning for cybersecurity."
