[Downloadable Brief Bio]

I am an Assistant Professor in CSE, specialized in Program Analysis, at IIT Bombay – one of the finest places to be at for a Computing Systems enthusiast in India. We have a vibrant atmosphere and a peaceful green campus, amidst a cosmopolitan metro city. The birds and trees around cheer you up when you look out, and the waves in Mumbai's many beaches nourish you when you look within.

I did my PhD with the wonderful Prof. V. Krishna Nandivada at IIT Madras. It taught me the value of hard work, and enriched me with patience and determination. Prior to that, I gained passion for computer science at KITS Ramtek, and for teaching+learning at Kendriya Vidayalaya and Tagore Montessori schools in the beautiful town of Balaghat. My first job was at IIT Mandi, where I experienced how enthusiasm from a faculty member can impact generations of young lives, and how that translates back to love that enriches the enthusiasm.

I have stayed amidst forests and rivers (in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh), on top of the Himalayas (at Mandi), and next to oceans (at Chennai and Mumbai). Apart from playing with computers I like discussing history, writing prose and poetry, practising Yoga, and traveling.
