About

I'm a Financial Engineering graduate student at NYU Tandon, with an undergraduate degree in Computer Science (AI/ML specialization) from SRM University on a 100% scholarship.

My work sits at the convergence of quantitative finance and machine learning—from Hidden Markov regime models and bootstrap-validated trading strategies, to sector-level clustering of S&P 500 market structures. I care deeply about statistical rigor: if it can't survive a null hypothesis test, it doesn't ship.

Currently seeking quant research, strats, and risk roles where I can apply probabilistic modeling and systematic thinking to real market problems.
