Hi there! Welcome to my virtual estate. I am a Ph.D. student at MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) working with Prof. Christina Delimitrou.

I’m interested in desigining the next-generation datacenter servers for emerging microservice and serverless applications. Currently, my research tries to answer the following questions:

• How to decide resource capacities when provisioning servers?
• What new hardware knobs to add to servers to help accommodate heterogeneity in applications and what are the best ways to tune such knobs?

I’m also interested in addressing issues of interpretability and generalizability of machine learning models when they are used for computer systems tasks.

I completed my undergraduate at IIT Gandhinagar. During my undergraduate days, I worked with Prof. Manu Awasthi, Prof. Joycee Mekie and Prof. Rajeev Balasubramonian on approximate computing, computer arithmetic representations, neural network compression, computer architecture for smartphones, hybrid memory systems and autonomous vehicles.
