Hi! I am a third-year Ph.D. student at Mila and Université de Montréal, advised by Prof. Aaron Courville and Prof. Laurent Charlin. I work on reinforcement learning for large language models, with a focus on test-time scaling and credit assignment for reasoning.

Previously, I spent two wonderful years as a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research India (MSRI), advised by Dr. Manish Gupta and Dr. Manik Varma, where I developed algorithms for large-scale retrieval that were deployed in Bing.

I graduated from BITS Pilani in 2021 with a Bachelor's in Computer Science and a Master's in Mathematics. For my Bachelor's thesis, I worked with Dr. Soumendu Sinha and Prof. Pratik Narang on utilizing computer vision for precision agriculture.
