I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. My advisors are Dr. Ellen Longmire and Dr. Ivan Marusic. My work at the Turbulent Shear Flows Laboratory focuses on the use of advanced optical diagnostic techniques to elucidate the structure and organization of near-wall turbulence.

I received my Master of Science (MS) degree in Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics at the University of Minnesota, with a minor in Mathematics in Spring 2006 under my current advisors. I completed my Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) degree in Aerospace Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, India in 2004.
