I am the CEO & Co-Founder of Unified Sciences, where we are building the infrastructure for AI-accelerated science. My research spans self-improving agents, LLM reasoning, automated research pipelines, and agentic data analysis — bridging cutting-edge research with production-ready systems.

I am also a Postdoc at Mila - Quebec AI Institute, working with Prof. Chris Pal, Prof. Laurent Charlin, and Hugo Larochelle on enhancing scientific workflows with AI. Previously, I was a Visiting Researcher at ServiceNow Research.

I hold a Ph.D. and M.Math. in CS from the University of Waterloo, and a B.Tech. from IIT Kharagpur.

Apart from research, I am much enthused by language and art. I love to sometimes engross myself with sketching and painting. Check out my art collection if you’d like! I have also been learning to play the piano, as well as to speak Japanese and French.
