Welcome to my digital footprint!

I'm a third-year doctoral student at University of Toronto, where I'm advised by Dr. Samar Sabie. My research program entails investigating, designing, and developing data tools and algorithmic systems to support financial practices of underserved communities like cooperatives and towards financial inclusion. I am currently conducting my research in partnership with a cooperative housing organization in Toronto.

Previously, I was a software developer at Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Observability Team in India. I graduated from Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS), Pilani- one of the six Institutes of Eminence in India, with double majors in Economics and Computer Science in 2021. 

I am passionate about applying my work experience and interdisciplinary knowledge for social impact. For instance, I developed a chat interface to democratize information flows for low-literate communities in rural India as part of my Master's thesis under the mentorship of Dr. Bill Thies (previously Microsoft Research).
