Hello! I am an NBHM Post-Doctoral fellow at The Stat-Math Unit, ISI Bangalore.
Previously, I was a PDF at Harish-Chandra Research Institute till October 2024. I obtained my Ph. D. from IISER Pune under the supervision of Prof. Anupam Kumar Singh.
I am interested in group theory, algebra, and related topics.
