Update: I just successfully defended my thesis. Will be joining Instabase soon.
I am a sixth year PhD student in the MIT Database Group, where I work on making large scale data analytics interactive using accelerators like GPUs. My advisor is the amazing Prof. Sam Madden . Love to think, build things, code, travel and my bed.I have previously worked with Srikanth Kandula at Microsoft Research – Redmond, on using approximation query techniques for big data queries and with Prof. Sudarshan on improving join enumeration in transformation-based query optimisers. I completed my bachelors in Computer Science at IIT Bombay.
In my free time, I like to hack (in the good way :)). I run Dictanote, a note-taking application that combines a mini MS-Word with the ability to dictate notes in over 40 languages. What started out as a hobby project now has around 100,000+ users.
