Rahul Goel

I am a PhD student at CSAIL, MIT working with Prof. Jonathan Ragan-Kelley and Prof. Frédo Durand. My research interests revolve around making things efficient and performant in machine learning and visual computing.

I enjoy reading books, playing table tennis, running, coooking and ice skating.
