I am an Integrated PhD student in the Department of Astronomy & Astrophysics at TIFR Mumbai, working in infrared astronomy at the crossroads of astrophysics and astrochemistry using both data analysis and simulations.

I also love building instruments, from a homemade stellar spectrograph to phone astrophotography through various amateur telescopes, and I keep exploring short side projects in simulation, instrumentation and data analysis, from galaxy distances to exoplanet transits.
