I am a theoretical chemist currently working as a post-doctoral research associate in Northwestern University. In my Ph.D., I have built on several mathematical models to understand various stochastic process in condensed phase systems. In Prof. Sing's group, I was looking  onto the dynamics and energetics of ubiquitous polymeric systems under flows. In my current role in Prof.  Shrinivas's group, I'm aiming to combine my analytical and simulations tool kit with the knowledge of machine learning design techniques. This all boils down to understand the behavior of polymeric and soft materials using the combination of mathematical tools and computational techniques. This knowledge can thus be applied to the designing of high performance materials which is the main motive of my research.
