I am a second-year graduate student at UCLA advised by Prof. Rafail Ostrovsky and Prof. Amit Sahai. I am a part of the Computer Science Department and am currently supported by Dean’s GSR Fellowship. I am interested in theoretical computer science particularly fundamental questions in complexity theory arising in cryptography and related fields.

Prior to this, I was a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research India working with Prof. Vipul Goyal. This summer, I was back at Microsoft Research interning with Dr. Neeraj Kayal. During my undergraduate studies at IIIT Hyderabad, I worked with Prof. Kannan Srinathan and Prof. Kishore Kothapalli.
