I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Hawaii at Mānoa. My research lies at the intersection of wireless communication, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence.
We develop trustworthy AI-native wireless systems by bridging physical-layer security, ISAC sensing, and learning at the RAN edge. Our work emphasizes privacy-preserving, resilient AI-RAN/O-RAN prototyping, and security against adaptive and generative AI threats. We are increasingly interested in ToM-inspired network agents for intent-aware, multi-stakeholder decision making in AI-RAN.
Prospective Students:
I am looking for self-motivated Ph.D. students to start in Fall 2026, Spring 2027, and later.
