Summary

I make the dumbest thing smart. I am passionate about solving problems with possible Machine Learning modelling. I am keen on learning new algorithms. I believe sharing knowledge will increase my understanding of the subject in hand.

Currently, I am working in Amazon, London on the personalization of Subscription page.

I was working with Zalando SE in the Pricing & Forecasting Team from May 2018-August 2019 and before that I worked as a Machine Learning Engineer at Zomato. My major areas of interests are Deep Learning and Natural Language Processing.

I completed undergrad from IIIT-Allahabad. Some of my notable projects in the Deep Learning includes Synthesizing Insights and actionable items from user opinions and reviews, Photo Classification tailored to Food search and Discovery platforms and EyeQ (Image Quality and Aesthetics determination).

I dream to pursue Artificial Intelligence as an independent researcher in future.
