Bio

I’m a Computer Scientist working at the intersection of AI/ML, Deep Learning and Computer Vision.

I am currently attending Iowa State University for my Ph.D. (Computer Science). I attended Iowa State University for my Masters of Science (Computer Science), graduating with a distinction (1st class). Prior to Iowa State, I hold Bachelor of Technology (B. Tech.) Degree from B.I.T. Sindri, India, graduating with a distinction (1st class).

As part of my service to the profession, I’ve been a reviewer for ICLR and NeurIPS, ICML, ECCV .

You can find a list of my publications here.

Personal life

I currently reside in Ames, IA, USA, though my roots trace back to Bihar, India. During my formative years, I resided in Mussoorie, India, where I pursued my education at Oak Grove School. Since 2017, I have called the United States my home, where I am currently pursuing my studies.

During my leisure hours, I indulge in reading and attempting to cook, albeit with limited success.
