About Me
MY BACKGROUND
Hi! I hail from the capital city of India. Currently pursuing a doctoral degree in Computer Science Engineering at IIT Bombay, my research interests are in AI and Deep Learning for real-world applications. After graduating from Shiv Nadar University, Delhi NCR with a B.Tech (highest distinction) in Electronics and Communication Engineering and a minor in Computer Science Engineering, I was a Junior Research Fellow (JRF) at IIT Patna under Dr. Udit Satija for nearly half a year before joining IIT Bombay as a doctoral student. In addition to gaining valuable research experience in the field of Deep Learning and its applications in healthcare and communication, this opportunity provided me with insight into Ph.D. life and the skills needed for success.
Apart from research, I try making time to sing, record music and create some art like sketches and mandalas. By the way, I am a B.A. in Classical Music (vocals)!
