I am the Founding Engineer at Optica Industries, where I lead ML and Perception. We are backed by Addition, Lightspeed, & Neo.

Previously, I worked on Humanoids at Persona AI & researched Video Understanding at Sieve Data to power Petabyte-scale video datasets for Frontier AI Labs.

I am interested in Inverse Problems and JEPAs, advised by Vivek Boominathan, Randall Balesteiero, & Ashok Veeraraghavan. Before this, I've worked on Chip Design, Nano Neuro-electronics, and Energy at the MIT Media Lab, Ajayan Group, and IIT Guwahati.

Here are some things I believe. I also like to write about things that interest me.
