I am a fourth year Electrical Engineering PhD student at Stanford University, advised by Prof. John Duchi. In my research, I use techniques from statistics and optimization to study different Machine Learning paradigms and give principled solutions to the problems that arise. I am currently working on problems in differential privacy and federated learning. I am also interested in studying the nuances in learning problems when the data sources are social in nature, and in modeling the impact deployed ML systems have on shaping individual choices.
Before joining Stanford, I did my bachelor’s and master’s at IIT Bombay. During my time there, I worked on Game Theory, Restless Bandit Algorithms and MCMC on Graphs with Prof. Vivek Borkar, Prof. Ankur Kulkarni and Prof. Jayakrishnan Nair.
Outside work I enjoy biking, soccer, cooking and anything outdoors.
