About Me

Hey there! I'm a Computer Science graduate from VIT Chennai with a passion for distributed systems, federated learning, and high-performance computing. What started as academic curiosity has evolved into building production-scale systems that solve real-world problems.

I'm particularly drawn to challenges involving distributed machine learning, edge computing, and systems that need to scale efficiently. My recent work focuses on federated learning frameworks and containerized ML pipelines that can run across multiple devices and environments.

What I'm Currently Working On

Current focus areas:

  • Leading the development of HabitatFL, a federated multimodal learning framework for wildlife conservation
  • Building enterprise-grade banking systems with modern web technologies
  • Expanding GreyLattice publication with deep-dive technical content on neurotechnology
  • Exploring the intersection of edge computing and machine learning

Recent achievements:

  • Architected federated learning systems achieving 87.65% accuracy on wildlife audio classification
  • Published peer-reviewed research on cryptographic pipelines and adaptive cybersecurity
  • Deployed containerized ML workflows on NVIDIA DGX infrastructure
  • Founded and launched GreyLattice technical publication with 5+ longform articles
