I’m I am a Data Scientist with 7 years of experience specializing in Recommendation Systems and Natural Language Processing (NLP). My career journey spans diverse domains, from high-scale industry platforms to conservation technology and the free software movement.
I focus on bridging the gap between complex AI research and practical, real-world applications across three core pillars of expertise:
- Indian Vernacular NLP: Developing multilingual solutions and processing content for Indian Languages.
- Recommendation Systems: Designing end-to-end retrieval and ranking systems that balance personalization with platform-wide health and diversity.
- Marine Conservation: Leveraging AI and computer vision for wildlife monitoring and data management to support environmental protection efforts.
I am deeply committed to open science and the free software philosophy, actively collaborating with researchers and NGOs to drive innovation that creates social and environmental impact.
