I am currently an MSR student at Carnegie Mellon University working with Prof. Laszlo Jeni and Prof. Max Simchowitz. Largely I am interested in building robotic agents that can one day be deployed in people's homes.

Before this, I spent two beautiful years in Japan soul-searching and working with Honda's RnD lab in Tokyo on vision perception and SLAM pipelines for AVs in unstructured environments.

I've also worked with research labs across academia and industry, including Adobe Research (resulting in a US patent), and collaborators at NTU's Sentic Lab on projects spanning AI, cognition, and healthcare.

I did my undergrad from IIT Bombay in Computer Science & Engineering. During my undergrad, I spent a ridiculous amount of nights in the labs of the Mars Rover Team. Some of this resulted in recognition from international rover competitions but mostly equipped me with the ability to pull insane all-nighters.

Eventually, I would love to start my own company. My first shot at it was FeMeal, a venture that helped women combat PCOS and rallied serious community support. The startup bug hasn't left since.

I write stories, sometimes relatable, sometimes useful, but mostly stories that touch my heart. I also have a hobby to collect books and sometime I tend to read from my collection :)

I keep my DMs open for curious conversations, good collaborations and building ideas!
