Research Data Scientist @ Reliance

I specialize in health sensing, developing systems that facilitate a paradigm shift from reactive to proactive healthcare. To achieve this, I leverage an interdisciplinary toolkit of signal processing, machine learning, and embedded systems.

My research has been published in premier venues such as ACM IMWUT and ACM HEALTH, and has garnered prestigious recognitions including the Fulbright-Nehru Fellowship, the Prime Minister’s Research Fellowship (PMRF), the UbiComp Gaetano Borriello Student Award, and the Commendation Medal for Outstanding Research from IIT Gandhinagar for my doctoral contributions.

Currently at Reliance, I use data science combined with LLM to drive insights from energy and mobile tower data.
