My professional journey and work experience
Waiting for Approval
Application submitted. Awaiting approval for the next exciting opportunity!
AI Developer Intern
Ongoing remote internship with a New York-based data extraction and automation company. Actively working on intelligent pipelines and exploring firsthand how artificial intelligence transforms and enhances the data extraction domain.
AI Intern
An 8-week mentored AI project where I built a mood-adaptive music generation system using Meta's MusicGen model. Users can describe their vibe through text prompts, and the system composes original audio tracks that match their mood — from chill lo-fi to energetic beats.
AI Intern
Participated in AI-focused training sessions covering fundamentals of machine learning and deep learning algorithms. Worked on a project to build a voice based speaker recognition model.

Coming Soon
Cool projects are brewing! I'm working on some exciting new ideas that I can't wait to share with you. Stay tuned!

AdaptIQ
An AI-powered adaptive learning and career guidance platform that creates a dynamic loop between a user's skills, aspirations, and real-time AI mentorship. Dynamically generates personalized quizzes that scale difficulty based on inferred comprehension, visualizes career roadmaps and skill trees via Mermaid.js, and ingests past learning history from ChatGPT/Gemini exports via Multer. Uses a strict 1500-token context window strategy with rolling summaries to maintain long-term behavioral profiles without bloating LLM context.

AbleEat
Built an end-to-end computer vision system that scans entire grocery shelves and highlights food items safe to consume based on dietary restrictions, allergies, and health goals. Fine-tuned a ResNet-based classifier on 36 fruit and vegetable classes, achieving 98% classification accuracy. Implemented a Vision + OCR pipeline using Google Vision API to localize product regions and extract ingredient labels with 90% text extraction accuracy. Designed an LLM-driven ingredient analysis engine to match extracted labels against user-defined allergens, macros, and dietary rules, improving unsafe-item recall by 30%.

Croporia
A full-stack, AI-powered agricultural intelligence platform built for Indian farmers. Consolidates crop science, real-time mandi prices, RAG-powered agronomy guidance, computer-vision pest & disease detection, hold-or-sell price forecasting, P2P crop marketplace, community forum, and a personalized daily feed — all in one place. Built on a three-service architecture: React SPA, Express + MongoDB REST API, and a FastAPI AI/ML backend with LangChain, FAISS, and Groq LLaMA 3.3 70B.

SevaSetu
An AI-powered government form assistant for Indian citizens that eliminates preventable application rejections. Combines a RAG pipeline (sentence-transformers + AWS Bedrock Claude 3.5 Sonnet), EasyOCR document extraction, and a scikit-learn rejection-risk scoring engine to validate documents, auto-fill forms from uploaded IDs, and answer queries in 9 Indian languages. Escalates to a human officer when AI confidence drops below a configurable threshold. Deployed with React on Vercel and FastAPI on AWS EC2.

EventHive
A full-stack event operations platform connecting organizers, volunteers, and clients on a single system. Replaces ad-hoc workflows with structured event creation, role-based volunteer enrollment, client offer negotiation, expense tracking, advance payment with counter-negotiation, real-time 1:1 and group messaging, incident reporting, and an analytics dashboard. Features a volunteer XP/badge reputation system with 6 rank tiers and 9 badge definitions, organizer composite ratings, and a Bird's Eye View for public volunteer assignment breakdowns.

Deep Dehazing
Implemented a Transformer-based image dehazing system using U-Net with MiT-B3 encoder, achieving 20.53 dB PSNR and 0.9109 SSIM on 110 validation images. Optimized CPU inference pipeline to 580 ms/image, enabling near-real-time haze removal without GPU hardware. Trained on paired hazy/clear datasets using hybrid reconstruction + perceptual loss, improving average PSNR by 9+ dB. Deployed a Flask web application with real-time upload, visualization, and automated PSNR/SSIM scoring across 50+ samples.

DineAssist
An AI-powered restaurant recommendation system built during the OpenAI Hackathon. The project uses a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline to embed and store restaurant menu data, enabling the model to fetch precise dish-level information during conversations. By combining semantic search, user-mood based intent detection, and LLM-driven reasoning, DineAssist generates personalized suggestions for cravings, diets, and price ranges. The system integrates menu parsing, vector embeddings, and contextual retrieval to make meal discovery smarter and more interactive.

GPU Kernel Execution Time Prediction
A performance-modeling project where I built an ML system that predicts the execution time of a 2048×2048 SGEMM kernel using 14 configurable GPU parameters. The model also estimates MNIST training time and power consumption as reference workloads, enabling fast performance forecasting without executing the kernels. This project combines GPU profiling, feature extraction, regression modeling, and power-runtime analysis for practical system-level optimization.

Voice-Based Speaker Recognition Model
Developed and trained deep learning models using Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) architectures to process sequential audio data. Engineered and extracted relevant speech features such as Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) to enhance model accuracy and performance.
