Texas A&M University
I am a Doctoral student in the Department of Computer Science & Engineering, Texas A&M University at College Station (TAMU). I am advised by Prof. Nitesh Saxena at SPIES research lab, and my research interest lies in the intersection of Adversarial ML, AI Security and Deep Learning.
I received my Masters degree (Thesis) from Texas A&M University at Kingsville (TAMUK) in 2023. At TAMUK, I had the oppurtunity to work with Prof. Habib M. Ammari at WiSeMAN Research Lab, on designing reliable, fault-tolerant and energy-efficient Wireless Sensor Networks, and with Prof. Taesic Kim at CPPES Lab, on the cybersecurity of Distributed Energy Resources and Smart Grid.
Prior to joining TAMUK, I was a Senior Software Engineer with 5 years of professional experience (2016-2021), and received my Bachelors degree from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) at Dhanbad in 2016. At IIT, I worked on the project of Computer-aided design and simulation of Automobile components subjected to various experimental conditions, under the supervision of Prof. L. A. Kumaraswamidhas.
Apart from researching, I am very fond of drawing pencil sketches, creating ambigrams, watching Anime/TV Series/Movies, and playing Video games.
