Summary

My name is Ashvini and I am from India working at LinkedIn as Applied Research Engineer in NLP and ML. My daily job involves keeping LinkedIn feed spam-free, improving job search, and applying state-of-the-art algorithms for the problem at hand. I enjoy interacting with students and have served as a speaker as well as conducted workshops at various campuses.

I like to travel and recently I went to Iceland and that made me more curious about traveling to various parts of the world. I love playing TT and Squash in my free time and like to hang out with friends.
