I am a final bachelor's student in Information Technology at Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College, Ludhiana, with an expected graduation in June 2025. Recently, I am with Prof. Chandresh Kumar Maurya at the Indian Institute of Technology, Indore, where I focused on speech-to-text translation for Indic languages. Prior to this, I worked with Prof.Angelo Salatino at the Knowledge Media Institute, tackling web crawling and knowledge graph enrichment, and with Prof. Ashish Kumar Jha at Trinity College Dublin on sentiment analysis of LinkedIn posts. I also contributed to a government-aided pharmaceutical project under Prof. Sandeep Kumar Singla

My research interests lie in Natural Language Processing (NLP), aiming to advance it into a mature science and engineering discipline. My work spans areas such as speech-to-text generation, prompt generation, semantic analysis, signal processing, and predictive analysis. Additionally, I have hands-on experience with machine learning frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch, and I have developed various applications using technologies such as FastAPI, MERN stack, and Selenium.
