Final-year B.Tech at IIT Gandhinagar working on machine learning, optimization, and quantitative finance. Upcoming intern at Axis Bank. SEBI-certified NISM Research Analyst.
The short version: I like turning hard, fuzzy problems into systems that learn.
I'm a B.Tech dual-major in Chemical Engineering with an AI specialization at IIT Gandhinagar, with a strong focus on computer science. As a SEBI-certified NISM Research Analyst and upcoming intern at Axis Bank, I build quantitative trading strategies and financial analysis pipelines.
My work spans software development, algorithmic trading, optimization, and process engineering, with hands-on experience in PyTorch, C++, and Python. Outside coursework I lead initiatives at IIT Gandhinagar's startup ecosystem and tech festivals.

Optimization solution to FedEx's logistics problem statement at Inter-IIT Tech Meet 13.0 — modelled routing and capacity constraints, evaluated cost-vs-time tradeoffs across delivery scenarios.
Optimization of forklift leasing and dock scheduling for cost and time efficiency at retail distribution centers — formulated as a linear program with real warehouse constraints.
Paper notes, project write-ups, and the occasional rant.
What the 2017 paper actually says, why it worked, and what surprised me on a careful re-read in 2026.
