I currently am a Software Engineer at Google, working on the Search&Assistant backend infrastructure. Before Google, I built Recommendation Systems at Wayfair in Boston, MA.

I received my Master's in Computer Science from UMass Amherst in May 2018. While there, I worked with Chan Zuckerberg Initiative under the guidance of Prof Andrew McCallum and Dr. Shankar Vembu. I was the TA for the courses CS611: Advanced Algorithms, and CS311: Introduction to Algorithms under Prof Ramesh Sitaraman.

Besides these, I played badminton professionally (former), run 5Ks, and go on high altitude treks. I also am an avid competitive programmer; You can look me up on Codechef and Hackerrank. I am interested in number theory and solving related problems. If you do too, then here!

You can get in touch with me via LinkedIn, email, or just tweet to me.
