I'm Fathima Zarin Faizal, a PhD student in EECS at MIT. My research interests broadly lie in statistics and optimization. At MIT, I am currently working with Asu Ozdaglar and Martin Wainwright. 

I obtained a dual Bachelors+Masters degree in Electrical Engineering from IIT Bombay. I worked with Prof. Vivek Borkar for my Masters project on stochastic approximation. In the past, I have also been fortunate to work with Profs. Nikhil Karamchandani, Sharayu Moharir and  Jayakrishnan Nair
