I am a third-year undergraduate student of Mathematics at BYU.

I’m interested in both theoretical and applied post-quantum cryptography. My mathematical interests mainly lie in algebraic number theory, lattice theory, computational algebra, and commutative algebra, with applications to cryptography. You can read my most recent paper on here. We’re currently finishing up a paper for our project “Monogenic Fields of Cryptographic Size” which I am excited to talk about soon.

Previously, I was a research intern at Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy (MPI-SP) in cryptographic engineering, supervised by Peter Schwabe. I worked on evaluating ML-KEM at (much) higher security levels. On the implementation side, my interests include high-assurance and high-performance cryptographic implementations, as well as post-quantum privacy-preserving systems such as anonymous credentials.

Note: I go by Sia, while Swechchha is my legal name and appears in all my works.
