I am a Ph.D. student under Dr. Arpita Patra at CSA Dept, IISC. Before that, I completed my M.Sc. in Mathematics from IIT Bombay and I worked as an assistant professor in ITER college, SoA university in the department of centre of applied mathematics and computation. There I was assigned to teach Design and Analysis of Algorithms which motivated me to learn more about theoretical computer science. My research is mostly related to Zero Knowledge proofs and Multi-Party Computation. I am very fond of outdoor activities. I enjoy playing football and travelling.
