Vrinda Agarwal

I am Vrinda Agarwal, an architect turned data scientist with a Bachelor of Architecture from BIT Mesra and an MS in Urban Spatial Analytics from the University of Pennsylvania. I spent two years building software at a real estate startup and then developing tools for building design and sustainable energy modeling. In my data science work, I built spatial ETL pipelines for whole-life carbon forecasting, led a LiDAR-based shade-mapping project to improve pedestrian comfort, and researched structurally intelligent networks in urban planning. Passionate about energy transitions, policy, and equity in the Global South, I aim to create intuitive tools that foster resilient, low-carbon, and inclusive built environments.
