I am a third year physics graduate student at UCB, working with Dr. Daniel Carney at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. I completed my integrated Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Engineering Physics from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay). My research interests lie in the application of quantum information science to questions in fundamental physics such as gravity and quantum measurement. I also have a strong interest in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics and thermodynamics.
Beyond research, I am passionate about science communication and outreach. I have been involved in programs such as Splash!, which introduces high school students to advanced concepts beyond their curricula, and Expanding Your Horizons, a conference that encourages middle-school girls and gender-diverse youth to explore STEM careers. I am passionate about making physics more accessible to broader audiences. In my leisure time, I love to hike, play racquet sports and explore adventure-sports. I also have a deep interest in the performing arts – I play piano, sing and write poetry, and participate in poetry slams and open mics. I unwind by reading fiction, playing word-games and baking.
