Matan Shtepel (original) (raw)

Howdy! I'm Matan Shtepel: first-year PhD student at CMU. I've worked primarily in cryptography ∩ coding-theory and am broadly interested in theory.Office: Gates 9213

Previously I was a Research Assistant at UPenn with Brett Falk and Pratyush Mishra where I am partially funded by a grant from the Sui Foundation. Before, I did CS & Math at UCLA where I worked with Rafail Ostrovsky and founded Theory@UCLA.

Outside of research, math, and building subpar academic websites, I also enjoy fashion, Australian rock, running, reading, snowboarding, and spending an unhealthy amount of time on looking at mathematician and scientists' bios on Wikipedia.

Contact me for pretty much any reason!
