I am a graduate candidate in the Chakraborty group at Brandeis University, USA. I got my BSc and MSc degrees in physics from Presidency University, Kolkata, India. My research interests include statistical physics, soft matter, and biophysics. Currently, I am a graduate fellow at Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, UCSB.

For my graduate studies, I am doing theoretical modeling of active solids. I also explored a new model of cellular organization in tissues. As a visiting student at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, Bangalore, I explored models of active Brownian and run-and-tumble motion.

I have experience in mentoring and teaching. I am the primary instructor of the course 'PHYS12 B-Algorithmic Art', which I designed myself. I am very enthusiastic about scientific outreach and often combine my passion for science with my artistic skills.

I am dedicated to improving diversity, equity, and inclusion in my workplace. At Brandeis, I co-founded the 'Women in Physics' group with a grant from the American Physical Society. 

In my free time I like to draw, paint, knit, crochet, and cook.
