I am a fourth year graduate student. Before coming to CMU, I managed to obtain a bachelor's in Computer Science and Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur (IITK) in May 2005. My research interests include machine learning and applied algorithms. Earlier, I used to work in the area of planning under uncertainty. My boss is Carlos Guestrin :). I am also a member of the Select Lab.

I like most sports and workout regularly. I sometimes play ultimate frisbee (for which we maintain a mailing list). Let me know if you are interested in playing ultimate and want to get on the mailing list. I sporadically play badminton, squash and table tennis. I also love watching movies.

I used to be an active part of CMU Indian Graduate Student's Association (IGSA).

Things I am doing right now
Research Using Machine Learning and Optimization techniques to solve the data migration problem in self-managing storage systems, and to carry out optimizations in the Hadoop framework
Select Lab Reading Group Randomized Algorithms by Rajeev Motwani and Prabhakar Raghavan
