About Me

I am a passionate computer science student with a strong foundation in machine learning and artificial intelligence. Currently pursuing Masters at IIT Madras, I combine academic excellence with practical experience in developing innovative solutions.

I thrive in environments that challenge my problem-solving abilities and push the boundaries of innovation. My approach to technology is grounded in curiosity, continuous learning, and a strong analytical mindset. Whether it's exploring theoretical foundations or applying them to solve real-world problems, I enjoy the process of transforming complex ideas into practical outcomes.

Known for my consistency, resilience, and focus, I adapt quickly to new tools and concepts, and I'm always eager to engage in interdisciplinary conversations that blend software engineering with intelligent systems. I take pride in balancing academic excellence with hands-on exposure, and I believe this blend makes me a well-rounded candidate ready to contribute meaningfully in cutting-edge tech environments.

Projects

M.Tech Project

Topic: RAG-based Model Involving ML and Cybersecurity

Currently working on a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system integrated with machine learning techniques for cybersecurity applications.

AI Internship Project

Topic: LLM-Based Banking Query Assistant using Model Context Protocol

Designed and deployed an AI assistant using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable GPT-4-based querying over customer transaction data stored in PostgreSQL. Implemented a full server–client architecture, migrated it to AWS EC2 for remote access, and evaluated coding assistants like Cursor and Copilot for enhanced productivity.
