Welcome!
I am an Assistant Professor of Physics at Chennai Mathematical Institute (CMI). I specialize in gravitational-wave astronomy, with a focus on using observations of compact objects such as neutron stars and black holes to study compact-object astrophysics and probe fundamental physics.
Prior to joining CMI, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). During my PhD at ICTS-TIFR and a subsequent postdoctoral appointment at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (AEI, Potsdam), I worked on waveform modeling of compact-binary mergers, tests of General Relativity, and gravitational lensing of gravitational waves.
This website provides an overview of my research, publications, scientific talks, and CV.
