About Me

Hi! I am a final-year PhD studentat at Machine Learning Lab, IIIT-Hyderabad, India, under the guidance of Prof. Girish Varma. My research primarily focuses on Probabilistic Generative Models (Normalizing Flows), Theoretical Machine Learning, and Deep Learning, with applications in Computer Vision.

I have industry experience from my semester at Samsung Research, where I worked with Dr. Sathya Reddy and Dr. Pravin Nair on Generative Models for Image Super-Resolution. Additionally, I have completed research internships at:

• CVR Lab, University of Illinois, under the guidance of Prof. Narendra Ahuja in collaboration with Dr. David Beiser and Dr. David Chestekat at the College of Medicine at the University of Illinois Chicago.
• School of Mathematics and Statistics, University of New South Wales Sydney, under the guidance of Prof. Rohitash Chandra and Dr. Ehsan Farahbakhsh in collaboration with the School of Geosciences, The University of Sydney, Australia.

I hold a B.Tech degree in Computer Science & Engineering from Harcourt Butler Technical University - Kanpur, India. I am from Greater Noida, India. Beyond research, I am passionate about building and developing innovative ML solutions. I am also an avid reader—feel free to check out my collection of intriguing novels on Goodreads.
