I am a research engineer at FAR AI working with Dr. Adam Gleave on research projects focusing on AI Safety. I am interested in scalable approaches to mechanistic interpretability and adversarial robustness.

I graduated with a bachelors in Computer Science from IIT Bombay. For my bachelors thesis, I worked with Prof. Shivaram Kalyanakrishnan to build Fianchetto, an AI agent for the game of Reconnaissance Blind Chess that won the NeurIPS 2021 competition on RBC.

I have also interned at Microsoft Research to work on incorporating phrasal rules with LLMs on-the-fly with Prof. Sunita Sarawagi and Dr. Sriram Rajamani. In the summer of 2020, I interned at the PLRI lab of Technical University of Braunschweig, Germany to work with Prof. Thomas Deserno on human fall detection.
