I am currently a research assistant under
Prof. Aristides Gionis in the
Data Mining Group.
Prior to this, I worked at Exeter India Software Private Limited as Associate Software Engineer for one year.
I was always interested in building an Artificial Intelligence systems from a very young age. In my Bachelors program, I learned about algorithms, data structures, a couple of programming languages, mathematical concepts like probablity, discrete maths, linear algebra and many more. I built simple AI applications for Tic Tac Toe games and solving sudoku problems. These implementations gave me insights into understanding the intuition behind Artificial Intelligence. I also completed a course on Machine Learning on Coursera. This motivated me to choose Machine Learning and Data Mining as my major in my Masters program.
I am exposed to diverse theoretical topics and different frameworks for analyzing large data sets. I have mainly focused on Algorithms, Networks and Social Dynamics. In addition to that, I have also learned various concepts in Machine learning(ML) including neural networks, Advanced Probabilitistic methods for ML and Kernel Methods for ML. Some courses had programming work, where I got hands on experience with working on Hadoop, lucene, Spark and mongodb. During this very intense masters course, I have also done some projects to get an hands on research experience.I am in my final stages of writing my masters thesis and I will soon be graduating.
I am currently on the job market looking for a Data Science, Software Engineering position starting from Spring 2017.
