I am finishing my Ph.D. in the Department for the Study of Religion at the University of Toronto and will join the Department of Religious Studies at Stanford University in January, 2022 as a postdoctoral fellow and lecturer. I am a historian of religion in South Asia. I specialize in Sanskrit scholastic cultures, with particular interest in Vedānta in Persianate Deccan and north India. I also have broad interests in social and intellectual history and the study of religion. I work with sources in Sanskrit, Persian, and Marathi.
