I am a Computer Science Ph.D. candidate working with Prof. Nirupam Roy. My research aims to seamlessly integrate sensing, computing, and communication into everyday environments. My work spans ultra-low-power sensing, ambient computing, and embedded AI, with a focus on energy efficiency, scalability, and robustness. These technologies have the potential to revolutionize smart infrastructure, autonomous robotics, continuous health monitoring, and precision farming.
I am on the academic job market.
