About

I hold a B.Tech degree in Computer Science and Engineering and an M.Tech degree specializing in Artificial Intelligence. My PhD thesis titled “Design and Evaluation of Naamya” focuses on designing accessible gesture-based interactions for flexible smartphones to draw primitive geometric shapes by users with blindness or low vision. With over seven years of experience as an academic researcher, I have actively contributed to various research areas, including Interaction Techniques, Tangible and Haptic User Interfaces, Multi-sensory UX Design, Aging and Accessibility, Rehabilitation, Inclusive Design, Interactive Computing, and Machine Learning (ML). Beyond research, I find happiness in painting, sculpting, photography, and gardening.
