About Me

I am a PhD candidate in the School of Operations Research and Information Engineering at Cornell University. Before coming to Cornell, I was a Master's student at the State University of New York at Buffalo, where my research involved vibration control and estimation of tumor motion for radiation therapy.

I completed my undergraduate studies in Mechanical engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi, India in 2003. From 2003 to 2007, I worked in the energy sector in India.



Research Interests

My broad interests are in the area of stochastic modeling and optimization under uncertainty. At Cornell my research mainly involves stochastic dynamic programming and its applications in developing energy efficient dynamic resource allocation policies for cloud computing facilities and telecommunication networks.
