I am an Assistant Professor of computer science at Dartmouth College, where I lead the Distributed Computing and Verification Lab. My research spans algorithms, verification, and applications with a focus on designing simple, fast, scalable, and reliable solutions to challenging multidisciplinary problems. My work has touched several areas of inquiry, including distributed computing, algorithms, verification, relativistic physics, economics, security, and machine learning. Prior to Dartmouth, I worked as a research scientist at Google Research and Artificial Intelligence, where I designed and deployed fast and formally verified algorithms for large-scale data processing and clustering.

I received my PhD from MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, advised by Julian Shun. Prior to that, I received an MS from MIT, advised by Costis Daskalakis, and a BSE from Princeton University, where my thesis was advised by Bob Tarjan and my research on mathematics in Sanskrit was advised by Manjul Bhargava.

I am a faculty advisor to Dartmouth Shanti, the Hindu Student Organization of Dartmouth. I am a Sakahari (Hindu Strict Vegetarian), and I aspire to contribute to the understanding of dharma and experience of ānanda.

I am passionate about Telugu and Sanskrit. I wrote the first modern computer science research paper in Telugu, which is included in my MIT Ph.D. thesis with an abstract in Sanskrit. I was honored as the Salutatorian at the inaugural Hindu Students Council Commencement where I delivered a speech in Sanskrit addressing graduating students from around the world. I learnt Sanskrit through Samskirta Bharati's SAFL, at Princeton, and at MIT as the president of MIT Samskritam.
