About Me

I am a Computer Vision Engineer at Dragonfruit AI developing a novel pipeline that tracks entities in multi-camera settings, yielding in valuable information from the scene which any client might use. I am broadly interested at the juncture of Deep Learning and Computer Vision, and I aim to solve challenging and meaningful real-world problems, like scene understanding, through the power of AI.

Previously, I received my M.S.E in CIS from the University of Pennsylvania and B. Tech. in CS from Punjab Engineering College. In the past, I have been fortunate to work with amazing mentors, Prof. Jianbo Shi (GRASP Lab, Penn), Prof. Jürgen Beyerer and Dr. Tim Zander (Fraunhofer IOSB / KIT Germany).
