About me

I am a senior software engineer at Aspen Technology (formerly Open Systems International). I develop optimization algorithms for power systems and electricity market management.

I completed my Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Michigan State University. My research area involved explainable AI-driven design space exploration, multi-objective optimization, evolutionary algorithms, and machine learning.

After graduating from Jadavpur University in 2016, my professional journey started at Wipro Digital as a software developer. I started my Ph.D. program at MSU in 2018, where DARPA Tansformative Design (TRADES) was my first project in collaboration with Siemens, PARC and Georgia Tech. Since then, I have worked with multiple industries like Ford and General Motors as a graduate research assistant, including a 2019 summer internship at Siemens.

In my spare time, I like reading up on modern history and current affairs. Currently, I am learning to play the keyboard and achieve conversational fluency in French.
