Bridging mechanics, art, code and entrepreneurship.

Assistant Professor (Research) at Vanderbilt University

About

I am an assistant professor (research) at Vanderbilt University, where I explore the intersection of high-performance computing, adaptivity, and art in research. I founded the eigenplus project around 2016 to share with the world and build upon the knowledge I developed during my years at NPCIL, where I worked on the analysis and design of nuclear power plant systems.


Although my career has been rooted in structural analysis and engineering design, I am a self-taught programmer, having built my first application at the age of 15. I hold a Master's and PhD in computational mechanics from IIT Roorkee, where I deepened my focus on numerical methods and large-scale simulation.


My five years in industry continue to shape how I approach research. I focus on developing computational methods that are not only mathematically rigorous, but also have the potential to accelerate real-world engineering workflows and applications.
