I am a sophomore studying Computer Science at Birla Institute of Technology and Science Pilani, Pilani Campus. I am interested in conducting research within the fields of computational biology, neurotechnology, and machine learning. I also have a keen interest in participating in various olympiads, particularly in linguistics and informatics, as well as prestigious competitive programming competitions like ICPC.
