About

I'm a second-year CS PhD student at Stanford University with the StanfordNLP group and OVAL lab, advised by Monica Lam. I'm currently interested in creating useful systems that assist users to leverage capabilities of Large Language Models for gathering and creating knowledge.

Previously, I was a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research with the PROSE group, where I worked on Program Repair and Formula Intelligence in Excel spreadsheets, advised by José Cambronero and Vu Le. I have been a Research Software Engineer at Supedio GmbH working on Master Data Management, Medical Entity Resolution and Text Extraction from PDFs. I have interned with the research team at DRDO, Govt. of India, where I worked on an Image Segmentation task in a simulated Gazebo environment. I spent a summer at Chennai Mathematical Institute as a Mathematical Finance Summer Scholar, working on sliding-window approaches for finding abnormal rate of returns. In the summer of 2018, I was a student developer with Google Summer of Code.

Also: if you're an undergrad/master's student at Stanford interested in research, please reach out! I'm more than happy to chat about opportunities here! (email address at the bottom of the page)
