I am currently a grad student at the Computer Communication Research Group and I work with Prof. J.J. Garcia-Luna-Aceves. My research interests involve compact and succinct routing, more specifically, routing issues in wireless adhoc networks and topological ordering of routing entities in a mesh network.

I spent my last summer as an intern at BBN Technologies, Cambridge, MA working on the PIRANA project as a part of the WNaN effort with Vikas Kawadia and Niky Riga. The summer before I collaborated on projects with Ignacio Solis at the Palo Alto Research Centre (PARC), Palo Alto, CA. Before starting my program at UCSC, I completed my Bachelors in Computer Science from Hindustan College of Engineering, affiliated to Anna University, Chennai, India.
