Thea Ullegård Kjeldsmark

I am an MS in Computer Science student at the University of California, Irvine supported by the Thanks to Scandinavia Foundation (selected by Fulbright Denmark). I am excited about software and systems security. Currently, I am doing research in security and privacy for emerging technologies.
During my master’s, I have been a summer research fellow at ETH Zürich in the Advanced Software Technologies Lab. I completed a BSc in Software Development at the IT University of Copenhagen with a semester abroad at the American University in Cairo.
Outside academics, I interned as a software engineer at J.P. Morgan and Microsoft. I have also had the opportunity to live in seven different countries: Denmark, USA, South Korea, Scotland (UK), Ireland, Egypt, and Switzerland.
