I'm an Artificial Intelligence & Data Science engineer based in Pennsylvania, USA (originally from Mumbai), driven by data-driven decision-making, intelligent systems, and real-world problem solving. My journey into data science began unexpectedly on the football field, where analyzing strategies, patterns, and outcomes shaped how I think about optimization, prediction, and performance. That mindset carried into my academic and professional path in AI and analytics.
