About Me

Graduate Student at Northeastern University majoring in Information Systems who loves designing and building applications.

I believe Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence are the way to the future and soon we will start using applications which all use it in some way. I would like to be associated with them in some way.

I am a free spirit and would love to work in a collaborative and a free thinking environment where people are given space to think on innovative ideas.

I'm a motorcycle freak, and have ridden my bike through the Himalayas, covering the highest motorable pass in the world at 5,359 m.

I like exploring new places when I can. Nothing can pull me apart from football and swimmming. Ardent Chelsea fan. I like working on challenging projects, learning new languages, collaborating on team projects, all with positive vibes.
