I'm a mathematician.  Since September 2025, I have been an assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), Bhopal.  

I'm primarily interested in operator theory, operator algebras and free probability, with secondary interests in applied mathematics. 

Previously, I was an International Associate (i.e. a postdoc) at the United States' National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST, https://www.nist.gov/) in Gaithersburg, Maryland, where I was part of the Applied and Computational Mathematics Group, working with Paul Patrone and Anthony Kearsley. Before that, I used to be at TU Delft in the Netherlands, where I was a postdoc in the Analysis group of the Delft Institute of Applied Mathematics, under the supervision of Martijn Caspers. 

Even earlier, I earned an Integrated Master of Science degree from the National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER), Bhubaneswar, India, before going on to earn my PhD in mathematics from Texas A&M University, under the supervision of Ken Dykema.
