I am an architect and urban designer based in San Francisco. I graduated from the Master of Architecture in Urban Design program at Harvard University Graduate School of Design. My research at Harvard was awarded the Mellon Urban Initiative Research Grant, Paul M. Heffernan International Travel Award, Penny White Project Fund and the GSD Advanced Research Grant. I served as a Research Assistant to Professor Joan Busquets and Professor Sai Balakrishnan, whose work focuses on identifying patterns of urbanization, investigating the political economy of infrastructure and exploring advancements in resilience. I have a professional degree in architecture from Jawaharlal Nehru Architecture & Fine Arts University in Hyderabad, India and six years of design experience, notably with Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in San Francisco and Balkrishna Doshi in Ahmedabad, India.
