Welcome

I am a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science at North Carolina State University pursuing a Master's degree in Computer Science. I am currently working as a Software Engineering Intern at VMware Inc. where I work with the High Availability team on their distributed availability services for the vSphere product. I plan to graduate in December 2014 and I am currently looking for full-time opportunities starting January 2015.

My areas of interest is in Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing and Large-Scale Distributed Systems and I find the current research in these areas very interesting. Through my previous internships, projects and courses, I have gained theoretical and practical knowledge in these domains and continue to pursue them through various means.

Prior to joining NC State, I did my undergrad in Bachelor's in Computer Science and Engineering from Jaypee Institute of Information Technology in India. My undergraduate thesis was on "Sign Language Recognition using Microsoft Kinect" and has been published in IEEE. [UG Thesis]
