I am an Applied Scientist in Amazon Fulfilment Technologies. My research focuses on discrete and combinatorial optimisation. Motivated by large-scale industrial problems, I am interested in advancing theoretical foundations and practical algorithms in this domain. 

I obtained my Ph.D. in Operations Research at H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial & Systems Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology,  with a minor in Machine Learning. I was advised by Dr. Santanu Dey and my dissertation focused on improving the theoretical understanding and practical performance of branch-and-bound algorithm.

Alongside my doctoral studies, I had pursued research internships at industrial labs. At Microsoft Research, I worked on pricing algorithms for column generation in the summer of 2023. At Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs, in the summer of 2024, I worked on adding disjunctive cuts to improve mixed-integer programming formulations for the optimal control of piecewise affine systems.

Prior to this, I obtained a B.Tech. and M.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay in 2018. Thereafter, as a Research Assistant in the Industrial Engineering and Operations Research department, I worked on applications of integer programming in logistics and transportation from 2019 to 2020.
