About Me

I am a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research India, where I work with Gaurav Sinha on problems related to online learning with large decision sets.

Before joining MSR, I spent two amazing years as an MTech research student at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bangalore, where I was advised by Prof. Siddharth Barman. I also had the opportunity to collaborate with Prof. Arindam Khan. I worked on problems related to Multi-armed Bandits, Fairness, and Causal Inference.

Prior to my MTech, I worked at Goldman Sachs Bangalore, where I built scalable analytics for fraud detection. Before that, I obtained my undergraduate degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from BITS Pilani.
