About

I am a passionate Computational Linguist with a Ph.D. in Computational Linguistics and diverse experience spanning academia and industry. My expertise lies in bridging theoretical linguistics with cutting-edge Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications, with a focus on benchmarking, alignment data curation, and fine-tuning methodologies like SFT and DPO. During my doctoral research, I delved into linguistics, machine learning, and deep learning, exploring innovative ways to bridge human language and computational systems. My internship at IIT Guwahati provided invaluable experience in working with Assamese speech and text data, further refining my linguistic analysis skills. Professionally, I have led teams of linguists, conducted response evaluation of LLMs, and trained professionals to uphold excellence in NLP workflows. I have developed benchmarking protocols, curated high-quality alignment datasets, and spearheaded the design of NLP models to tackle real-world challenges. My leadership experience has equipped me with the ability to drive results in fast-paced environments, ensuring quality and timely delivery. I am deeply committed to advancing NLP's potential to redefine human-technology interaction. Whether it's through research, alignment optimisation , or team leadership, I am eager to contribute to innovation in language technology. Let’s connect to discuss ideas, collaborate on transformative projects, and shape the future of NLP together!
