I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in May 2014 with a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering. My dissertation was titled "Automated Design of Planar Mechanisms" where I focused on Computational Representation (of knowledge), Kinematics (generalization for automation) and Optimization (generalization and repeatability) to automatically generate multiple planar mechanism designs for any user specified path (easily extendable to motion and function). I was advised my Dr. Matthew I Campbell (Prof. Oregon State University) and Dr. Ashish Deshpande (Asst. Prof., UT Austin). During my Ph.D., I have interned at Palo Alto Research Center and GE Global Research Center. Prior to graduate school, I worked as a Production Engineer at TVS Motor Company Ltd., India.
I joined the ME Department at WPI in August 2014.

I taught Modeling & Analysis of Mechatronic Systems (ME/RBE 4322) during A Term in 2014. I am teaching Intro to Static Systems (ES 2501) in the B term.
Know MoreMy interests are in Automated Design and Manufacturing which includes Kinematics, Knowledge Representation, Optimization, Conceptual Design and Semantic-web techniques.
