I have joined the ECE Department at UT Austin. Please check my new website. 

I am a Postdoctoral Associate in the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS) at MIT hosted by Prof. Asu Ozdaglar and Prof. Ali Jadbabaie. Prior to that, I was a Research Fellow at the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing at UC Berkeley for the program on Bridging Continuous and Discrete Optimization. I obtained my Ph.D. in Electrical and Systems Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania under the supervision of Prof. Alejandro Ribeiro. My current research focuses on the theory and applications of convex and non-convex optimization in large-scale machine learning and data science problems. For a slightly more formal third-person bio please check the Bio tab. Here are links to my CV and Google Scholar profile.
