About Me
I am a Graduate Student in Computer Science at UC San Diego, interested in Parallel & Distributed Systems, Networking and Security.
Prior to UCSD, I spent four years as an undergrad at M S Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT), Bangalore. For my Bachelor of Engineering capstone project, I was advised by Dr.Srinivasa K.G. For a brief but eventful summer, I worked as a Research Intern at the Center for Quantum Technologies of the National University of Singapore where I was mentored by Dr.Rahul Jain.
When not churning out lines of code, I like to pursue one of my many hobbies:
- Photography: I love to go on long walks/hikes alone with my camera in admiration of beauty in nature and otherwise.
- Traveling: I have traveled across 15 out of 30 states (and counting!) in India and most of South East Asia. I love to travel around and explore new places although San Diego’s heavenly weather has somewhat quelled that desire.
- Quora: I love the idea of Quora’s unique knowledge and experience sharing platform. I actively read, upvote and post on a variety of topics.
- Team Sports: I am always up for a game of Cricket, Basketball or Soccer.
- Video Games : I’m a PC gamer. My favorite titles are FIFA, DoTA, Call of Duty, Age of Empires. The classics.
- Reading : I enjoy reading classics, spy novels, science fiction and more.
