Raised amidst the ravishing beauty of the western coastal plains of India,
not far from the mighty Western Ghats,
I have lived my whole life wandering between the Konkan and Malabar coast,
and currently resides in Tokyo.

I work as an AI Researcher in the Computer Science division at Honda R&D Japan. Prior to which I finished my masters in Electrical Engineering from IIT Bombay with a specialisation in Control and Computing. During my time at IIT Bombay, I worked as a Project Research Assistant under Prof. Subhasis Chaudhuri in Vision and Image Processing Lab. I have also worked very closely with Prof. Biplab Banerjee of Centre of Studies in Resources Engineering, IIT Bombay.
My research interests include artificial intelligence and computer vision.

Blessed with a wide range of interests to choose from, I spend my free time sketching portraits, trekking, running, long-distance cycling, or reading. Basically a bibliophile, I love reading (unless plagued with a reader's block) and enjoy it as a means to understand new perspectives, get lost in a world of your choice and grow. Recently I have started experimenting with writing small articles, few of which you can find here. I also enjoy the pleasant pain after a tough workout and hence try to push myself to stay active by working out or running.
