About Me
I am a third year PhD student in the Rutgers University CS theory group advised by Sepehr Assadi. I am interested in sublinear and streaming algorithms, online algorithms and more broadly optimization problems. Recently I have been focused on proving lower bounds for streaming algorithms.
Previously, I was an undergraduate at IIT Madras where I worked with Jayalal Sarma. I also interned at Microsoft Research under Ravishankar Krishnaswamy.
