I am a PhD candidate at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University. I am advised by David J. Love and Chih-Chun Wang.

My research work broadly revolves around the field of wireless communications. I am specifically interested in signal processing for wireless communications, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications, and information theory. I am especially excited about my opportunity to connect engineering science and practice using software-defined radios.

Before my stint at Purdue, I studied electrical engineering and played Power Forward at Tennessee Tech University. Prior to that, I played Power Forward (and Small Forward) in Nürnberg as well as in Munich, my beautiful home town.
