About

I am an NLP researcher working on a wide range of topics in the field with some overlap with vision, speech and HCI. I have previously founded an esports org During 2018-2022. Apart from that, I have worked with meme pages and moderated a large region specifc subreddit gaining understanding of what goes on behind the scenes in social platforms and what issues preside over the platforms

From 2022-2024, I used to participate in shared tasks / Kaggle competitions and have finished 1st in over Half of those i took part in using limited resources competing against those who used over 100x. From 2024, I have been applying and obtaining grants on my own and started working on a few ideas.
