Hello | Vanakkam | Namaste

I currently work as a Research Engineer at CoinDCX. In my free time I run a commuinuty called The Phoenix guild Chennai Chapter which is a non-profit aiming to empower women and non binary folks in Tamil Nadu into Web3.

I completed my Ph.D. in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi. I worked with Prof. Vinay J. Ribeiro and Prof. Subodh V. Sharma. My research was on scaling PoW blockchain systems.

Prior to my PhD journey, I gained my masters in software engineering and worked as a data warehouse modeller. I have been a visiting scholar at IBM India Research Labs.
