About

Likes building tech, wonders on how unsupervised learning is legal and is thinking on training AI on nature to explore the possibility of causing a Tsunami! I'm a data person who transitioned to become a researcher. I like to delve into unstructured data to build tangible effects. Exposure to AI - Works on building image classifiers, PhotoDna, an image classifier to detect pornography on the platform, at Meta.. Believes in compartmentalized approach towards data but also calls for an hypothetical world where segregated folders interact with each other autonomously. Thinks of user experience to be this adaptive conceptualization, believes in an empathetic, empirical approach for the same. As a researcher, I like transforming raw input to semantically meaningful representation. I've worked on the intersection of technology, productivity and effectiveness building 'Offline' category of products- videos, groups and have worked through the entire supply-chain of development while building Facebook for work. I took a break from Facebook to do 'my time in the dessert' and currently, I run my artisanal furniture boutique. Core strengths include but not limited to; empirical study, surveys, market research, quantitative methods, data analytics, SQL, building datasets, image and video classifiers, python, data pipelining etc
