About Me
I am a final year undergraduate student at Ashoka University. My research interests lie in multimodal AI, problems at the intersection of vision and language, commonsense abilities in foundation models, and reasoning.
I am currently an intern at the Precog Lab at IIIT Hyderabad where I am investigating modality bias and preference in large multimodal models (MLLMs) Microsoft Research India. Previously, I have worked at Sarvam, KCDH-Ashoka, and the Mphasis AI & Applied Tech Lab at Ashoka. I am currently pursuing my undergraduate thesis on neurosymbolic reasoning supervised by Prof. Debayan Gupta (Ashoka University) and Prof. Somak Aditya (IIT Kharagpur). For more details, check out my CV, or look at my research.
Aside from work, there aren't many things that I do (which I am slowly trying to change). But sometimes, when I do find the motivation, I enjoy obsessing over frames. I am quite into comic universes, have an alarming number of Spotify minutes, and I try to swim sometimes. Please reach out to me if you find any of these interesting, or just want to have a chat!
[NOTE] I am also actively looking for PhD positions starting Fall 2026 in the aforementioned research areas. If there are any openings and I might be a good fit for your group, do let me know!
