I defended my PhD in computer networks at ETH Zurich (Network Design lab, Systems group), Switzerland in 2021. My PhD thesis focused on “new space” low-Earth orbit satellite network design and simulation. My recent work on simulating and analyzing satellite networks won the Best Paper Award at ACM IMC 2020. I also received IRTF’s Applied Networking Research Prize 2020 for my work on satellite network topology design.

I worked as a research fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics (Germany) during the summer of 2019. I earned a dual master’s degree in security and mobile computing from KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden) and Aalto University (Finland). I earned my bachelor’s degree in computer science from Jadavpur University (India).
