I graduated with a Ph.D. Computer Science from NYU Tandon, working under the supervision of Professors Nasir Memon and Chinmay Hegde on developing human-centric, usable systems that address real-world challenges. My academic foundation also includes a double major in Computer Science and Mathematics from BITS Pilani, India.
My research focuses on intersections of AI and security, encompassing innovative approaches to deepfake detection in audio and video, mining radio livestreams, memory forensics, and biometric systems. Through my doctoral research, I have contributed several novel systems and datasets across text, speech and vision modalities, that advance the field and support the broader research community.
I welcome collaboration opportunities and academic discourse. Please explore my publications to learn more about my work.
Currently seeking Applied Scientist / ML positions in industry where I can leverage my expertise in AI, security, and systems to solve challenging real-world problems.

We can now fight off deepfake audio calls by outsmarting them using PITCH. Check it out here.
We can now capture data off of radio live streams using WavePulse. Check it out here.
I fact-checked an audio deepfake at Reuters. Read the article here.
