Thinking Quickly Using Intuitive Principles

Hello! My name is Sanjay, and I am a Physics PhD student at Harvard University under my awesome advisor, Prof. Cumrun Vafa. I study the mathematical structure of quantum gravity, and my interests include string theory, the Swampland program, generalized symmetries, and homotopy theory.

I am interested in music: I have played the piano for ~12 years on and off, and when inspiration strikes, I sometimes attempt to compose my own music. I am also a long-distance runner and a novice (but enthusiastic!) rock-climber. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, writing, and drinking peppermint tea.
