I’m pursuing a Ph.D. in Computer Science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, under the guidance of Prof. Prashant Shenoy. As part of the Laboratory for Advanced System Software (LASS), I am currently working on the design of failure-aware model serving system for Foundation Models. More broadly, my research interests include Machine Learning and Artifical Intelligence, Distributed Inference and training, fault-tolerance and resource management on the Edge/IoT.
Prior to this, I have a 2.5+ years of experience as a Software Engineer at multiple firms including Deskera, Publicis Sapient and Boeing. I earned my Bachelors degree from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IITM) in 2020.
I’m actively looking for research internships for Summer 2027 — feel free to reach out!
