About

I'm a final-year computer science student at Karunya in Coimbatore, specialising in AI and machine learning.

Most of what I build sits between two problems: getting LLM agents to give answers you can check, and building backends that don't lose data when something downstream breaks. PharmaTrace and my observability pipeline are the clearest examples of each.

Along the way I published a computer vision paper in IEEE, finished Amazon ML Summer School and worked four internships plus a year-long generative AI traineeship.
