Currently I’m pursuing MS in Applied Data Science at IUPUI. I’m also a member of the DESIJAGS and MSA clubs at IUPUI.

I graduated with excellence with a BS in computer science in August 2022 securing a CGPA of 3.9/4. I conducted my bachelor thesis at RWTH Aachen in Informatik 5 in which I have designed a web application for mitigating obesity in children. I have also received the Dean’s award for 3 consecutive semesters which is given to top 10% of the students of that year of that major whose GPA is above 3.5/4.

I’m passionate about deriving insights from different data sources and presenting it in a visually appealing manner. Therefore I have developed some projects relating to it in which I have utilised some of the libraries of python and presented the visualisations using Power BI and Tableau.
