I am interested in understanding how organizational actors design and build new technologies. My current research focusses on investigating the influence of RRI regulations on new technology development. Trained as a qualitative researcher, I predominantly draw from ethnographic methods for my research.

Born in India, I am currently a Ph.D. student in Management at Emlyon Business School, France. Prior to my doctoral studies, I graduated with a Research Master’s degree in Information & Society from IIIT Bangalore. I hold an undergraduate degree in the applied sciences, and worked for a brief period in technology consulting.
