I am a PhD student at Cornell University, advised by Aditya
Vashistha. Previously, I was a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research, where I worked with Tanuja Ganu, Srinivasan Iyengar, Mohit Jain, and Manohar Swaminathan.
Research Interests
I work on Responsible AI and Human-AI Interaction. I study cultural and racial bias in generative AI
models. This includes dicovering, benchmarking, and mitigating bias in AI models. I also work on AI for social good,
such as in healthcare, misinformation, and sustainability. My work has been published at ACM CSCW, COMPASS, and
SenSys, and has also been open-sourced by Microsoft.
Past Life :)
Prior to MSR, I graduated magna cum laude in Computer Science from Ashoka
University, India. At Ashoka, I was awarded the Undergraduate Research Excellence award. I also won the
Student Life Excellence award for my contributions to student life and social impact. I have played varsity-level
badminton and football/soccer, and national-level tennis.
