I'm a mechanical engineer and applied researcher with 13+ years of experience turning advanced computational physics and machine learning into insights relevant to intervention planning and medical device design. I currently work as Principal Product Development Mechanical Engineer at DASI Simulations, to bring simulation- and AI-based structural heart intervention planning to healthcare systems worldwide. My path here started in fluid-structure interaction and injury biomechanics modeling at IIT Bombay and George Washington University, and continued through a Ph.D. at Johns Hopkins University — where I developed reduced-order models of heart valve dynamics and embedded-sensor diagnostics for failing prosthetic valves.
I care about two things equally: getting the physics and the math right, and making the results legible — to a surgeon, an engineer, or a non-specialist. The second instinct is why a lot of my work involves advanced visualization and clear communication.
In my spare time, I serve as a reviewer for several leading journals such as Physics of Fluids, Physical Review Fluids, Physical Review Letters, Journal of Fluid Mechanics, and Annals of Biomedical Engineering.
