I am now a second-year Computer Science Ph.D. student at Georgia Institute of Technology, advised by Prof. Ashutosh Dhekne (WiSciTech Lab)

My research interests include Wireless Networking, Mobile Systems, and IoT with a concentration in ultra-wide band (UWB) based sensing, localization and tracking, and millimeter-wave (mmWave) sensing systems, autonomous vehicle systems.

I completed my undergraduate studies in three years majoring in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics from the University of South Carolina Honors College, Columbia, SC, USA. As an undergrad, I conducted research with Prof. Sanjib Sur (SyReX Lab) and with Prof. Jason Bakos (Heterogenous and Reconfigurable Computing Lab).
