I’m a PhD student at Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT), National University of Singapore (NUS). I’m honoured to be advised by Prof. Divesh Aggarwal.

I did a joint bachelors and masters in CS from IIIT Hyderabad, affiliated with CSTAR, IIIT Hyderabad and CQST, IIIT Hyderabad where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Shantanav Chakraborty and Prof Indranil Chakrabarty. Here I was working on Quantum Algorithms.

My research interests span theoretical computer science, but I particularly like approximation and quantum algorithms, applied to optimization, natural sciences, and lattices, as well as complexity theory (hardness, non-approximability and its connections to cryptography and physics). Recently I have been studying computational lattice problems.

NEWS: Our work On the practicality of quantum sieving algorithms for the shortest vector problem has been accepted for a talk at PQCrypto 2026.

Personal

I love to lift weights, jog and practice various Martial Arts. In my free time I like to read and watch Sci-Fi. You can find some of the books I like here. I love to code and read about large software systems. You can find some of the projects I’ve worked on here. I identify as a chaotic good druid . Feel free to reach out to me about stuff you think I’ll like, or talk about whatever.
