ABOUT ME

I'm a Computer Science & Business Systems student at St. Vincent Pallotti College of Engineering & Technology, Nagpur, passionate about building intelligent systems that turn emerging technologies into practical, real-world solutions. My work spans AI/ML, RAG, LLMs, intelligent automation, vector databases, and data analytics. I enjoy solving complex problems, designing scalable systems, and exploring how AI can improve accessibility, efficiency, and decision-making. What drives me is the belief that technology should be purposeful and accessible. Beyond building projects, I also enjoy sharing knowledge through workshops and community initiatives, helping others learn and experiment with technology. I'm currently exploring opportunities where I can grow as an AI engineer, contribute to meaningful products, and work on problems that create genuine impact.

Purpose before novelty. Learn openly. Share what moves technology forward.
