I am a scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. Previously I have worked as a research staff member at Renaissance Computing Institute and MCNC in North Carolina. I have Masters and doctoral degrees from Indiana University and a bachelor degree in computer engineering from VJTI, University of Mumbai.

My primary area of interests are in software tools for high performance computing, data-intensive computing and distributed systems (grids, clouds, etc) for scientific applications. I am interested in data management, workflow tools, resource management, monitoring and adaptation for performance and fault tolerance.
