Bio

I am working with Prof. Brighten Godfrey on decentralized WAN Traffic Engineering. Before that, I spent a few years with the Networks Group at Microsoft Research. Here is my academic ancestry.

I dedicate some time to learn random things. I am trying to support Jaipur Foot, a charity that helps people with limb-related disabilities - please consider contributing.
