About Me

I am a Software Engineer at Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) with 3+ years of experience in software engineering, data science, machine learning and data analytics. I am also currently a Master’s student in Analytics at the prestigious Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). My passion for data and technology began early on, leading me to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a concentration in Data Science from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in 2021.

During my undergraduate studies, I had the privilege of working as an undergraduate researcher at the Center for Urban Informatics and Progress (CUIP) under the guidance of Dr. Mina Sartipi. There, I contributed to a public transit optimization project in collaboration with Chattanooga’s public bus transit service, CARTA.

Born and raised in India, I attended my freshman and sophomore years at the esteemed Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology (DAIICT) before moving to the United States to complete my degree at UTC.

My diverse academic and professional experiences have equipped me with a strong foundation in data science, analytics, and software engineering, allowing me to tackle complex challenges with a unique perspective.
