I finished my thesis under the guidance of Prof. Yongjoo Park in the area of online aggregation for deeply nested queries. During my masters, I interned at Meta, Menlo Park where I worked on tools to help debug entropy explosion in ranking models. Prior to this, I worked at Adobe Research, India as a Research Associate where my work primarily lay in the intersection of Systems and Machine Learning trying to find ways for data-driven system optimization.
