Sela Navot

In June 2025 I graduated from the University of Washington with a Bachelor's in CS and Math and a 5th-Year Master's in CS. I now work as a research engineer in the UW Cryptography Lab.

I have a broad interest in cryptography, security, machine learning, and computer science theory. Currently, I am studying multi-party computation protocols, distributed digital signatures, and artificial intelligence in adversarial settings. I am fortunate to be advised by Stefano Tessaro and Nirvan Tyagi.

I enjoy exploring the mountains and foothills, and have four years of experience as a professional ski patroller at Crystal Mountain Resort.
