Background

I work with human pose trajectories to detect onset of medical conditions with biomechanics symptoms at home settings. I also use these bio-signals to recommend form corrections in yoga and exercises.
My research aims to facilitate at home diagnosis especially when expert guidance is unavailable or too costly.

I am currently in my 6th Year of Ph.D. and will be joining RICE University as a Mehta Rice Engineering Scholar from Sept to Dec '25 where I will be working with Dr. Vaibhav Unhelkar to develop assitive technology for human task execution in medical settings.

I am open to Postdoc Opportunities.
