I am with Arm Research in San Jose, where I work on semiconductor physics and devices for post-Moore, post-digital electronic applications including but not limited to Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things.

I have a Ph. D. from Stanford University. My PhD thesis was at the the intersection of nano-electronics, semiconductor physics, and fundamental material science. I have previously worked at Sandisk (now Western digital, USA), CEA-LETI (France), Carnegie Melon University (Pittsburgh, USA), and Center for Excellence in Nano-electronics at IIT Bombay (Mumbai, India) [CV]

I am broadly interested in technology that would enable the next computational paradigm. Towards that end, I have accumulated a strong work experience and coursework in semiconductor physics, analog and digital circuit design as well as deep learning and artificial intelligence.

Before Stanford, I did my undergraduate degree in electrical engineering at IIT Bombay, India. My minor was in energy sciences. At IIT Bombay, I was the recipient of the Shankar Dayal Sharma gold medal for overall excellence. During my undergrad, I also enjoyed being part of the institute field hockey team, the institute mentorship program, and many other student-run organizations.

A strong desire to learn new things drives me every day. Science is my primary passion and I am acutely interested in knowing how we can harness scientific discoveries to make human life better. Ahem...I know this is super vague and corny but so is life :). In my leisure, I like exploring armchair philosophy, education technology, movies, books, food, and sports. I am recently into strength training and skiing. Also, I love good espresso!
