About

My interests lie in research and product development using tools like deep learning, computer vision and natural language processing. I am currently working on developing foundation models for computational genetics. I am very interested in working in small, gritty teams and companies focused on problem solving and niche techniques. My PhD thesis focuses on robust learning for multimodal models. I have also worked on generative models (GANs, VAEs) for physical systems and material discovery. I have previously interned at Meta in the Instagram Reels Ranking team, where I trained and deployed large recommendation models to production. I have also interned as a researcher at Bosch Center for AI, where I worked on adversarial attacks and defense for video classifiers.
