Hi there! I’m a Computer Science Master’s student at NYU’s Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. I’m a part of the CILVR group, working with Prof. Lerrel Pinto and Prof. Rob Fergus.
Before NYU, I was a Deep Learning Engineer at Flixstock, where I worked on GANs for photorealistic image editing. Previously, I was a Research Engineer at IBM Research India where I developed novel techniques for conversational question answering with Danish Contractor and his team.
I got the opportunity to pursue my bachelor’s thesis as a Research Intern at Microsoft Research India where I worked with Navin Goyal on translating code to natural language.
I graduated from BITS Pilani with a B.E. (Hons) in Electrical and Electronics Engineering. For more information, you can go through a list of my projects, or have a look at my resume. Feel free to reach out to me using your preferred platform. Links are right below that beautiful smile :)
