About Me

I am a computer science graduate student at the University Of Missouri Kansas City. I am a passionate Data Scientist with strong background in math and data mining algorithms.


I have worked on projects around predicting users preferences using machine learning and visual signal processing , analyzing tweets around specific hastags using big data frameworks such as Hadoop and PySpark . I also have experience in web development Travel Explorer, which is designed to be an itinerary planner for people who go to a new city using MEAN stack.


Prior to joining master's program, I worked for 3 years as Senior Software Developer at Kony India Pvt Ltd. I also enjoy developing applications for Windows Phone 8/8.1, tablet, Desktop/Kiosk and for Windows 10 Universal Platform using Visual Studio and Kony IDE.
