BIO
Hello there, I'm Yash.
I have a broad interest in theoretical computer science, particularly complexity-theoretic cryptography. My research generally focuses on cryptography and probabilistic proof systems.
Beyond academic pursuits, I enjoy a few simple pleasures that add balance to my life.
I am an amateur photographer who enjoys capturing nature and landscapes through the lens of my camera. In the future, this website may grow to include a page showcasing some of my favorite shots. On weekends, I like to engage with my community or go for a relaxing swim to escape the heat.
To wind down at the end of the day, I enjoy reading. I am especially drawn to the way authors reveal personality and character through words, bringing situations and people vividly to life.
