• An entrepreneur, AI innovator, and the mind behind Numpty Neuron, where I channel my enthusiasm for technology, psychology, and storytelling into building an accessible AI knowledge and technology hub. With a robust foundation as a Machine Learning Engineer at the startup environment of Pragnakalp Techlabs and a Research Associate at IIT Bombay's CFILT Lab, I’ve led projects in NLP, building tools like Named Entity Recognition and WordNet applications for Indian languages. My work spans cutting-edge generative models, chatbot development, and intelligent automation, including projects like a question generator, resume parser and biomedical relation extraction.

• Driven by a relentless curiosity and a love for reading, I’m constantly exploring new ideas, both in business strategy and tech. My creative problem-solving and visionary approach allow me to translate complex data into insights that resonate and add value. As much as I’m dedicated to AI, I’m also passionate about traveling the world, learning from diverse cultures, and finding fresh perspectives on every journey. This blend of creativity, leadership, and a zest for discovery fuels my work as I aim to make AI both transformative and accessible.
