I am a South Asian multidisciplinary artist living in Brooklyn, New York. 

I engage with the body, space, and technology to understand social behaviour and community dynamics. Grounded in performance studies, social psychology, and game design, my research-based art practice explores how emerging technologies–like motion capture, photogrammetry, and networked interactions–can capture interpersonal dynamics.

I currently teach at NYU Interactive Telecommunications Program/Interactive Media Arts department.
