ABOUT ME
Hi,
​
I am an incoming PhD (STFC-funded) at Cardiff University. With Prof. Hartmut Grote and Prof. Katherine Dooley, I am developing quantum technologies for ultra-high precision interferometry and future gravitational wave detectors.
I completed my fourth-year B.Sc. Physics Honors from Ashoka University, India.
Though I find chalk and board cool, I prefer screwing things up. In other words, I enjoy experimentation and instrumentation.
I am the Founding Secretary of Ashoka's Astronomy Society. We organized India's first inter-university Radio Astronomy Conference in November 2023. I enjoy teaching, science communication, writing, and traveling.
