About

As a current graduate student at the University of Southern California, I apply my skills in programming, web development, and data science to create innovative solutions. Previously I worked as a Software Development Engineer at The D. E. Shaw Group, where I gained valuable experience in the entire product lifecycle, from understanding user requirements to delivering high-quality software solutions for complex problems involving large financial systems. I graduated with honours in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics from IIIT Delhi. In my undergraduate study, I presented a strong academic background and an active involvement in various co-curricular activities. I was conferred with the Chancellor's Gold Medal for All-Round Excellence. I also gained valuable research experience as an undergraduate student researcher, working on projects in natural language processing, program analysis, human-computer interaction and deep learning. Additionally, I am an open-source enthusiast and had the opportunity to be selected for the Outreachy Internship in the May 2021 cohort. I also served as a mentor for the December 2022 cohort of the Outreachy internships, where I supported and guided aspiring developers from underrepresented groups. With a keen eye for detail and a commitment to excellence, I leverage my technical skills to create efficient software solutions. I enjoy collaborating with diverse individuals to bring ideas to life and deliver exceptional results.
