I am an Assistant Professor at Department of Mathematics,  Indian Institute of Technology Indore,  Indore, India. I completed my PhD at Emory University, USA under guidance of  Prof. Suresh Venapally. I held postdoctoral positions at IIT Bombay and IISER Mohali.

Broadly, I am interested in algebra, algebraic geometry and number theory. Specifically, I am interested in algebraic groups and their local-global principles, quadratic forms, field patching, commutators and products of conjugacy classes in finite groups and algebraic groups, Ruled Residue theorem type results for function fields of curves,  derivations on polynomial rings, and word maps for groups and algebras.
