Biography

I want to make it possible for everyone in the world to have free access to an effective and enjoyable education.

Currently, I work at Google developing open-source tools to improve online education. I also serve as a director of the Oppia Foundation, a non-profit whose aim is to make it easy for anyone to create and share interactive, learn-by-doing lessons with students around the world.

At Cambridge, I was a cosmology research student at the Dept. of Applied Maths and Theoretical Physics. I enjoyed my work, as I find the Universe fascinating - there is so much we don't know! During my PhD, I worked on investigating certain properties of singularities (points at the 'edge' of spacetime where things break down) as well as the behaviour of various matter components, with an interest in how they might contribute to explaining the dark energy problem (one of the outstanding problems in the field).
