About

I'm a final-year BS in Data Science & Applications student at IIT Madras, working across ML/DL, MLOps, and backend engineering. My research has taken me from graph neural networks for drug discovery to anomaly detection in smart grids — and into a peer-reviewed publication along the way.

Alongside coursework, I mentor as a Teaching Assistant to over 5,000 students — which mostly means I've explained backpropagation more times than I can count, and gotten good at making hard ideas land.

Featured work

A few projects that went the whole distance — from idea to something that actually runs.

01
Graph Transformers for Drug Similarity
CURRENT BIOINFORMATICS · IIIT NAGPUR

Co-authored a peer-reviewed paper applying graph transformers to compute drug similarity matrices over 267 drugs — research that started as a summer internship and ended up published.

02
Smart Grid Anomaly Detection
NIT SURAT · RESEARCH INTERNSHIP

Built centralised ML pipelines to flag anomalies in smart grid telemetry, benchmarking logistic regression against CNN, RNN, and ANN architectures on real-world grid data.
