About me

I am a Research Scientist at Meta working on machine learning at scale in the Ads Online Experimentation group.

I received my PhD from The University of Texas at Austin, where I was fortunate to be advised by Sanjay Shakkottai. During my time in grad school, I was also blessed to have worked with these amazing collaborators: R. Srikant, Ayalvadi Ganesh, Abishek Sankararaman and Daniel Vial.

My research interests lie broadly in the fields of machine learning, optimization and networks. In particular, I am interested in developing efficient and reliable machine learning tools for real-life applications, and characterizing their theoretical and empirical behavior. My PhD thesis focused on design and analysis of communication-efficient decentralized algorithms in various multi-agent bandit settings.
