Hello, there! I am an MS student (Thesis Track) in the Computer Science Department at Virginia Tech (VT), advised by Dr. Xuan Wang. I am also a member of the Sanghani Center for Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics at VT. My primary research interests include NLP, LLMs, Multimodal AI and AI for Healthcare. I am currently working on Large Language Models (LLMs) for biomedical sequences.

I obtained my Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science (CS) from Indian institute of Technology, Bombay (IIT Bombay).

Prior to VT, I worked as a Senior Data Scientist with 4.5 years of experience in Big Data and Machine Learning. In my role at a multinational AI company, I worked with Fortune 500 companies like P&G (Consumer Goods), IdeaForge (Drone Technology), Sky (Telecom Media), DLG (Insurance), and Visa (Financial Services). My work involved leveraging their structured/unstructured data to build intelligent AI systems using cutting-edge machine learning & deep learning frameworks.
