I am a 2nd 3rd year Ph.D. student at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, CSE Department advised by Ganesh Ramakrishnan, working on large scale efficient machine learning, generously supported by the Prime Minister Research Fellowship (2022-2027). I am also collaborating with Pradeep Shenoy at Google Deepmind India primarily on Efficient Pretraining of Large Language Models and Knowledge Distillation for Large Language Models. I am also collaborating with Dr. Krishnateja Killiamsetty at IBM Almaden Research Labs.

Trajectory
