Biography

title

I am a PhD student at Carnegie Mellon University advised by Prof. Anthony Rowe and Prof. Ben Titzer. My research interests currently span software virtualization and debugging for edge systems, with auxillary interests in compilers and operating systems. I am particularly excited by WebAssembly as a tool for low-level virtualization for edge cyber-physical systems.

I completed my B.S in ECE at UT Austin, with a focus in computer architeture and embedded systems.

I often engross myself in personal projects, hackathons, and engineering endaevors. A notably exciting one was a fully-functional in-house out-of-order RISC-V core with custom perfomance-enhancing extensions to the ISA. A more detailed list of my personal projects can be found here

Career goals aside, I am an outdoorsy person with an interest in sports like surfing, trekking, and climbing. Music is a fairly great escape into my artistic side. Culturally, as an Indian-American with a mixed bag of cultural exposure, I hope to absorb and embrace the best parts of both.
