I am a staff research scientist in the Google DeepMind Team in Montréal. I am also an Adjunct Professor at McGill University. I finished my PhD at Mila under the guidance of Aaron Courville and Marc Bellemare. Previously, I spent a year at Geoffrey Hinton's amazing team in Google Brain, Toronto. Earlier, I graduated in Computer Science and Engineering from IIT Bombay.

My research work mainly revolves around reinforcement learning (RL) and LLMs, often with the goal of making RL methods suitable for real-world problems, and includes an outstanding paper award at NeurIPS.
