A theoretical physicist whose current research lies at the interface of non-Hermitian physics, open quantum systems, and light-matter physics. I develop analytical frameworks that combine methods from theoretical and mathematical physics with quantum and statistical mechanics to predict experimentally-testable phenomena in light-matter systems. While cavity optomechanics and atomic superfluids in optical cavities provide a clean testbed for these ideas, the underlying frameworks are broadly transferable across light-matter and other mesoscopic/nanoscale platforms, with applications to sensing/metrology, quantum thermodynamics, and quantum information.
I have a strong interest in pedagogy.
Currently, I am working at the Rochester Institute of Technology as a postdoctoral associate. I received my PhD in 2025 from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bhubaneswar in India where my research was funded by the Prime Minister's Research Fellowship.
