About Me

I research techniques to automatically discover software bugs. My work spans several areas including software engineering, programming languages, systems, and security. My recent projects make use of dynamic program analysis and coverage-guided fuzz testing. My papers have been published at venues such as ICSE, ASE, ISSTA, OOPSLA, SOSP, SoCC, NSDI, and USENIX Security. My research tools have been used to discover 50+ new bugs in widely used open-source software and have been adopted by various firms in industry.

At CMU, I lead the Program Analysis, Software Testing, and Applications (PASTA) research group.

I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science at UC Berkeley, where I was advised by Koushik Sen. My dissertation investigated techniques for specializing program analysis and automated testing tools using artifacts that incorporate the knowledge of domain experts. I've also worked with Amazon Web Services as a visiting academic in the database systems research group, with Microsoft Research as a research intern in the cloud systems group, with Samsung Research America as a security engineering intern in the KNOX group, and I spent two years at IBM Research India in the developer productivity group. I hold a Master's degree from IIT Bombay, where I did a thesis on static program analysis.

I am also the lead designer of the ChocoPy programming language, which is used to teach the undergraduate compilers courses at UC Berkeley (and several other universities across the world).

My academic ancestors include Newton, Galelio, Kepler, and Copernicus.
