Trained as a physicist, I completed my PhD from the Cavendish Labs at the University of Cambridge, UK in 2014. I received the prestigious Dr. Manmohan Singh scholarship offered to two Indian students each year. I am also an Insight Data Science fellow, a highly competitive program for researchers moving into artificial intelligence. Prior to moving to the Silicon Valley, I was a Research Scientist at IBM Research, where I led the development of hybrid multi-modal approaches for facial recognition. I have lived, studied and worked in 4 continents over the last decade.
I am currently the Co-founder and VP of Engineering at Embody, an audio technology company that works at the intersection of acoustics and data science. In my other role, I am a mom and love to play with my toddler.
