Web Dev head
Manipal Information Security Team
August 2021 - September 2022
I was the Web Development head at Manipal Information Security Team, the official cybersecurity team of our college. Being an active member of the team for three years, I was involved in participating and hosting CTFs, conducting workshops, and spreading awareness about cybersecurity. As a team, we also organised the hugely successful Incognito22—a tech event that witnessed active international participation.
Head of Writing
The MIT Post
October 2021 - September 2022
As Head of Writing of the official media body of the MIT Post, I was responsible for all the content that was published by the body, along with my other team members. We covered everything that happened in college, from minor events to entire college fests. Newsletters, magazines, articles and social media content—we did it all.
Core Committee Member
Linux Users' Group
August 2021 - September 2022
As an avid user of open source technologies, I was happy to be part of this team of open source enthusiasts. We conducted install fests in college where our team helped students get familiarised with Linux and the rest of the open source ecosystem. We also helmed the LUG community—an open forum for anyone to pitch in about the tech world.
Research Experience
I have experience working as a research collaborator at the undergraduate level. Working in the areas of NLP and Brain Computing Interface, I have gained knowledge of data manipulation and processing in Python, utilising ML techniques in various applications, as well as gotten myself familiar with proper research workflows.
MITACS Globalink Research Intern

I worked under Prof. Garima Bajwa on Brain Computing Interfaces and their applications. Along with my research partner Vignesh Sekaran, we put together and submitted a paper on reproducibility techniques in BCI research to Rewords22 which is being held as part of IEEE 18th International Conference (e-Science) in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. The paper got accepted and was presented at the conference in October 2022.
Research Collaborator
Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal
December 2020 - August 2021
The project involved analysing and collecting financial news and events and then correlating their impact on stock prices of top companies using sentiment analysis with Python, while applying mathematical and analytical algorithms along the way. This has the potential to be applied for optimising stock portfolios.
