About

Hey reader, thanks for visiting my website. I recently graduated with my Master's degree from NCSU with a specialization in Machine Learning and I have 5+ years of industry experience in developing and deploying Machine Learning algorithms for Automotive, Medical and Agricultural domains. I am curious about the human brain, and have a passion for signal processing and coding. Merging the two led me towards exploring artificial intelligence algorithms to replicate and go beyond the capabilities of the human brain.
