I am part of Open Networks and Big Data Lab and NYU Systems. My interests in computer science lie in the areas of both networked mobile systems and data science. My research goals are to use techniques from both these domains for novel applications, specifically in developing countries.
My advisor is Prof Lakshminarayanan Subramanian.
Prior to this, I spent nearly 3 years at TCS Innovation Labs in Chennai, working with a great team headed by Prof Anand Sivasubramaniam on building energy management. The work was mostly experimental research, where we employed building energy simulation tools to test a variety of hypotheses, and validate them against real world data collected from energy meters and sensors.
I obtained my Bachelors in Computer Science from IIT Madras in 2012.
