Doctoral researcher at the UGC-DAE Consortium for Scientific Research (Mumbai),
working at the intersection of Condensed Matter Physics and
Computational Science.
I cover the full research stack: from designing cryogenic hardware
and automating data acquisition to building simulation models and analysis tools.
