About Me

I am currently a PhD student at UCSC in Applied Cryptography, advised by Ioannis Demertzis. I work on privacy preserving databases and blockchains.

Earlier, I was a Research Fellow in the EzPC group, the cryptography wing of Microsoft Research India, advised by Divya Gupta and Nishanth Chandran. We worked on the applications of secure multi party computation to privacy preserving machine learning and database operations.

Prior to joining MSR, I spent two years at Microsoft, Bengaluru as a Software Developer, where I did backend development of Actionable Messages and Connectors, integrated into Outlook and Teams. I graduated in 2021 with a B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering.
