<h3>Caraxes: Tracking Critical Data in the Cloud</h3>
<p class="date">September 2, 2022</p>
<p>
End of internship talk at Amazon, where
<a href="https://www.atwalter.com/">Drew Walter</a> and I showed
how to "lift" taint analysis from code level to cloud level, and
also demoed a prototype tool we developed called Caraxes. The
slides and video of this talk are available in the Amazon
internal network.

<h2>Teaching</h2>
<p>
I have been a TA for the following courses: Algorithms, Logic and
Computation, Theory of Computation, and Computer Aided Reasoning.
Over the years, I've taught these courses across multiple semesters,
helping students understand fundamental concepts in computer science
and formal methods.
