Smiling face right here! :)

Hi! I am a physics graduate student at The University of Texas at Dallas working with Dr. Michael Kesden.

I am interested in understanding the observational imprints of the spin of the black holes on various astrophysical phenomenas. I primarily focus on tidal disruption events by spinning supermassive black holes and precessional (and nutational) effects on gravitational wave signals from binary black holes.

Interested in collaboration, outreach, or just chatting about black holes? Feel free to reach out! You can find my contact and research information below.

When I am not working, I enjoy playing basketball, reading and writing punjabi poetry, and dancing (mostly bhangra!).
