I am a Mathematics and Computing student at MIT Manipal (2025–2029). My interests center on quantum computing and the mathematics that machine learning is built on, and that curiosity has been pulling me increasingly toward interpretability and evaluation.

My first real taste of research was a summer at IMSc Chennai, where I split my time between quantum information theory and perturbative QCD/Higgs physics, working with Prof. V. Ravindran on the latter. It is where I learned what actually doing research feels like, as opposed to reading about it.

Lately I have been building things — a hackathon entry for Apart Research's Digital Minds track, and a Python/ML taskphase that ended with a scikit-learn pipeline I got to 99.39% test accuracy. I like projects with a clear question at the center, even when the honest answer turns out to be "no."
