Hello and welcome to my page!

I’m a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at The University of Texas at Dallas (UTD), working with Prof. Blaine Hoak as a Graduate Research Assistant on problems at the intersection of adversarial machine learning and computer security. Broadly, I’m interested in interpretable and robust AI models in security-critical applications.

Previously, I earned my master’s in Computer Science from UTD while working a part-time, on-campus student assistant job at UTD’s high performance computing center. And prior to that, I was a product development engineer at Comviva Technologies. Before venturing out into the industry, I earned my bachelor’s in Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) from SRM Institute of Science and Technology.

When I’m not working, I enjoy playing the guitar, listening to music, attending metal concerts, rewatching the Michael Bay live action Transformers movie trilogy, playing role-playing games (RPGs) (Soulsborne games, The Witcher franchise, etc.), and resistance training.
