I am a historian of South Asia and the British Empire, with expertise in women’s studies, visual culture, and digital humanities. My interdisciplinary research combines the study of image-based and textual archives enriching scholarly approaches to history making and history writing in the modern world.

Prior to my PhD, I earned post graduate degrees in Visual Studies and Literature from Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) and University of Delhi, respectively. 

I have a dual appointment as an Instructor in the Department of History and the International Comparative Studies Program at Duke University.
