Brief bio: I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California at Berkeley. I received my Ph.D. jointly in Statistics and Machine Learning from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. Before that, I received an M.A.Sc. in Electrical and Computer Engineering along with an M.Sc. in Statistics from the University of Toronto, where I was an exchange student from the Indian Institute of Technology at Guwahati while pursuing a B.Tech. in Electronics and Communications Engineering.
Interests: Broadly in statistics, machine learning, information theory, coding theory, signal processing, wireless communications. I tend to enjoy things based on elegant mathematical theories that also manage to provide useful insights into various engineered and physical systems.
