ICTS

I am a graduate student in physics at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences (ICTS-TIFR). I completed my undergraduate studies at BITS Pilani, Goa Campus. My research interests lie broadly in understanding physics at the smallest and largest length scales.

Outside of academia, I enjoy swimming, painting, listening to rock music, and sharing memes.

PhD advisor: R. Loganayagam
