I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. From 2022 to 2025, I was a Hirzebruch Research Instructor with joint appointments at the University of Bonn and the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics. In addition, from 2024–2025, I was a research visitor at the University of Edinburgh with an Argelander Mobility Grant. I also obtained my Ph.D. from UW-Madison in 2022, where I was advised by Andreas Seeger. Before that, I completed an Integrated Master of Science in Mathematics from NISER, Bhubaneswar.
My research interest lies broadly in Harmonic Analysis, both Euclidean and on the Heisenberg group. Of late, I have also become interested in applications of oscillatory integral techniques to number theory; in particular, to count rational points near submanifolds. My research is supported by NSF 2554830.
