I'm a final-year Computer Science student at New L.J. Institute of Engineering and Technology in Ahmedabad, specialising in AI and ML. Most of what I know I learned by building: a city-scale number-plate reader, a satellite change detector, an agent that investigates phishing emails.

I like the whole path from a model to something people use: fine-tuning and evaluating it, putting it behind an API, and building the interface on top. This year that meant an internship at Meru Technosoft, building a tool-calling chatbot on FastMCP and benchmarking OCR engines on real enterprise records.

I also draw. The Zoro on the Sentinel Hackathon wall is mine.

A training run, still converging.
