I am an AI Researcher with primary interests in Natural Language Processing. I am currently interested in AI Safety, Alignment, Reasoning and AI Content Detection. I work as a Senior ML Engineer at Bloomberg Law where I focus on AI Safety in the Legal domain. I am also a Ph.D. student at NJIT.

Previously, I was an Applied Scientist at Amazon Alexa AI (2017-2023) where I had the opportunity to work on various NLU problems ranging from semantic parsing, multi-lingual modeling to tackling the bias and fairness issue in machine learning systems.

I received my Masters from Georgia Tech advised by Professor Le Song. Before that, I worked as an engineer at Bloomreach where I worked on clickstream data processing and search relevance. I obtained my Bachelors in Computer Science from IIT Ropar advised by Professor Apurva Mudgal.

I am originally from Northern India. I spent my early childhood close to forests on India-Nepal border. Before starting my Computer Science journey, I wanted to be a physicist. In addition to my research interests, I love to cook, bike, read, learn piano, and occasionally travel. Feel free to reach out (via email) to chat about potential collaborations !
