Education
An ECE/CS Engineer, with Master’s in Computer Systems Networking & Telecommunications from Northeastern University, Boston, MA USA. Currently, I am pursuing PhD in the department of Computer Science at Purdue University where I'm working on different optimization techniques for 5G cellular networks and also exploring efficient cloud deployment and scheduling strategies for cellular NFs. Earlier, I worked as a Software Engineer at Microsoft, with primary focus on software development, architecture designing and building automation infrastructure for Affirmed Networks' Cloud Native 5G Mobile Core solution.
