About

I am a B.Tech student in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning at SVKM NMIMS MPSTME, graduating in 2027. I work mostly on retrieval-augmented generation, agentic tooling, and applied deep learning. In 2026 I interned at CN Automation, where I built a local RAG system for industrial manuals and connected Siemens TIA Portal to AI assistants. I founded and chair the ACM Student Chapter on my campus.
