About
Interests
I am interested in recording, understanding and simulating the natural world around us. I explore these interests through:
- Photography: A means for me to record and comprehend natural phenomena, while also delving into the nuances of camera technology. I am intrigued by the challenges that come with exploring the limits of consumer-level budget cameras.
- Outdoor adventures: I enjoy hiking and biking. I feel most alive after overcoming difficult physical challenges and being rewarded with a breathtaking view.
- Researching simulation techniques: My work in Computer Graphics focuses on researching simulation techniques that allow me to form mathematical models of our world. I am interested in all physics simulation techniques - from physically based simulation to path tracing. I enjoy the process of designing algorithms, implementing them in software, and optimizing their performance.
Current
-
Master’s thesis student at the McGill School of Computer Science in Montreal, Canada. I am supervised by Prof. Paul Kry.
-
Research intern at Huawei Noah’s Ark Lab, working on distributed physics.
Previous
-
Data scientist at Infinite Uptime, a startup that manufactures sensor devices to predict machine health for large-scale industrial motors (think Fitbits for large machines). I worked across the software stack - from embedded C++ firmware programming to designing & implementing a streaming analytics pipeline for 8k+ devices to implementing ML algorithms. My work also led to the publication of two patent applications in the Indian patent office.
