I'm a PhD student at ISE, UIUC, advised by Prof. Jugal Garg. My research sits at the intersection of algorithms, economics, and AI, and studies systems involving multiple self-interested agents. In particular, I study how the unique properties of data shape the way agents trade it in markets, and how agents can cooperate to allocate resources fairly among themselves.

Before joining UIUC, I was an MTech Research student at CSA, IISc Bangalore, advised by Prof. Arindam Khan. There I worked on approximation algorithms for geometric bin packing. Before that, I was a software engineer at media.net Bangalore for a year, where my work involved machine learning and distributed systems. Before that, I was an undergraduate Computer Science student at BITS Pilani.

In my free time, I lift weights and juggle. I can juggle up to 5 balls.
