I am a fourth-year undergraduate at  Carnegie Mellon University, studying Computer Science with a minor in Human-Computer Interaction. I am passionate about building technologies that help people, especially at the intersection of caregiving/healthcare. 

 

I am an undergraduate researcher at the Robotic Caregiving and Human Interaction Lab, working with Professor Zackory Erikson on software and hardware development and evaluation of assistive robotic interfaces for people with motor impairments. One of my papers won a Best Paper Award at the Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) Conference 2024. I am also the Undergraduate Coordinator for the lab.

​

Previously, I was a Software Engineering Summer Analyst at Goldman Sachs, where I worked on AI tools integrated into an internal Banker Copilot for Mergers and Acquisitions under their Investment Banking Engineering division. Before that, I was a Software Engineer Intern at Palo Alto Networks on the AI Runtime Security team, where I worked on guardrails to ensure the safety of LLM-integrated applications.

I am also a trained Odissi (Indian classical) dancer and currently serve as Senior Advisor for CMU Abhinaya, Carnegie Mellon University's competitive Indian classical dance team. I was previously Captain and Assistant Captain.
