About me

I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate and CRA/CCC/NSF Computing Innovation Fellow working with Dr. Danielle Albers Szafir in the Department of Computer Science at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill.

I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science & Engineering as part of the Graphics and Visualization Lab (GVL @USF) under Prof. Dr. Paul Rosen at the University of South Florida. I completed my M.S. in Computer Science at the University of South Florida and a Bachelor in Computer Engineering at the University of Mumbai. My broader research interests include information visualization, human-computer interaction, Visual design optimization, and perceptual science.
