I am currently working as a Senior Research Associate at QNu Labs Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore.
Previously, I worked as a Research Engineer in the Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) group at the Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT), New Delhi.
I earned my Ph.D. in Cryptography from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Ropar, where I was fortunate to have Prof. Somitra Kumar Sanadhya as my advisor. Before that, I completed my M.Tech. in Computer Science from IIIT Delhi, where I had the privilege of working with Dr. Donghoon Chang and was associated with the Cryptology Research Group, at IIIT Delhi.
