I am a second third year PhD student at the Cheriton School of Computer Science, University of Waterloo and a member of the Database Research Group. My advisor is Dr. Ihab Francis Ilyas. I am interested in different areas of database systems including ranking, data exploration, query optimization and information extraction. Prior to joining here, I spent some wonderful time with the Information Management Research Group at IBM Research India, New Delhi and the Computer Science Dept. of Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, from where I completed my under-graduate study.
