I am a machine learning researcher and engineer with a freshly earned PhD in Computer Science from NYU. I am with Google working on auto-raters for AI Overview and AI mode. My academic foundation also includes a double major in Computer Science and Mathematics from BITS Pilani, India.

My expertise spans real-time AI for cybersecurity, scalable distributed systems, and data mining. I am driven by a passion for building interpretable, adaptive, and production-ready AI systems that solve real-world challenges—especially those at the intersection of media, security, and data analysis. My professional journey is guided by a strong commitment to continuous learning, impactful collaboration, and translating research into societal benefit.

I welcome collaboration opportunities and academic discourse. Please explore my publications to learn more about my work.
