About

Hi! I’m an M.S in Computer Science student at Northeastern University, with a passion for hacking (the mostly ethical kind), cybersecurity, and building tech that makes a difference. As the founder of Mukti, my state's largest FOSS club, I love leading projects that explore open-source, AI, and cutting-edge security. From creating Kavaach, an EV charger security framework, to hosting events like Satark 3.0, I enjoy blending research with real-world impact. Along the way, I’ve worked on patents and research papers, delivered talks at conferences, and built tools that keep things secure in today’s fast-paced tech world. When I’m not deep in code or research, you’ll find me sharing ideas, collaborating with tech enthusiasts, or exploring how we can make technology smarter and safer for everyone. Let’s connect and build something awesome together!

Research And Teaching Assistant

Oct 2024 – Jul 2025 · 9 mos · Banagalore, India · On-site

Delivered dynamic and immersive lectures to a cohort of 160 students on 'Cryptography and Network Security' and 'Data Communication and Networking,' transforming complex concepts into actionable knowledge through an innovative, hands-on teaching approach. Leveraging real-world case studies, live demonstrations, and interactive problem-solving sessions, I inspired students to not only master core principles but also to think critically about their applications in emerging technologies. This experience allowed me to bridge the gap between academia and industry, fostering a generation of tech enthusiasts equipped with both theoretical expertise and practical skills to tackle real-world challenges in the evolving landscape of cybersecurity and networking.
