About
My path hasn’t been a straight line. It has been a progression from understanding the physics of signals
to designing the intelligence that interprets them.
From debugging hardware on the test bench to building scalable cloud systems, and now researching
adaptive intelligent systems, each step has been about closing the gap between theory and real-world
application. Below is the chronology of that journey — the milestones that shaped my focus on adaptable,
efficient, and practical AI.

Engineering Adaptive Intelligence
Ph.D. Candidate @ University of North Texas (SESL)
Developing memory-efficient neural architectures and zero-shot adaptation techniques for
resource-constrained environments. Leading research on systems that balance high accuracy
with
extreme frugality.
My research focuses on memory-efficient neural architectures, fast adaptation techniques, and semantic understanding mechanisms that allow AI systems to operate effectively under real-world constraints — emphasizing functional intelligence over brute-force scaling.

The Spark: Machine Learning
Exploration: From Logic to Learning
During this exploratory phase, I immersed myself in multiple domains — Network Security,
Blockchain, and Machine Learning — searching for an area where mathematical depth met
real-world
impact.
Machine Learning stood apart. Studying backpropagation and gradient descent introduced me to a new way of thinking about software: systems that do not just execute predefined logic, but improve through experience. The shift from programmed behavior to learned behavior marked a clear change in how I understood intelligence in computation.
I came to see ML not as just another technical field, but as a foundational layer for modern technology — one capable of reshaping how systems perceive, adapt, and operate. That realization set the direction for my doctoral journey and my focus on building adaptable, real-world intelligent systems.

Departure & Exploration
Leaving Comfort to Find Clarity
After a few years in a stable software development role, I made the deliberate decision to
step
away from industry. I had come to a clear realization: I didn’t want to only implement
existing
tools — I wanted to understand and improve the fundamental systems behind them.
Without a fixed destination, I treated this period as a focused phase of technical exploration — a time to step back, reassess, and search for problems that were foundational rather than incremental.

Expanding into Systems & Scale
Full-Stack & Cloud Engineering @ Harvard Pilgrim Health Care
During this period, my role expanded from application development into infrastructure and
deployment as the organization modernized its stack. Alongside full-stack work, I managed
Azure
cloud environments and implemented infrastructure-as-code for scalable, repeatable
deployments,
gaining hands-on experience with reliability and scale in production systems.

Building at the Application Layer
Full-Stack Developer @ Harvard Pilgrim Health Care
Focused on designing and maintaining responsive, user-facing applications and the backend
systems that supported them. Worked across the full stack using modern web technologies and
Java-based services, contributing to reliable data workflows and business-critical
functionality. This phase strengthened my understanding of how large software systems are
structured, integrated, and delivered in real production environments.
2017 - 2018
The Computing Expansion
M.S. Computer Science @ University of North Texas
This phase expanded my foundation from electronics and embedded systems into broader
computing
concepts. Through coursework and projects, I strengthened my understanding of software
systems,
data structures, internet and core computer science principles. While I had not yet defined
a
long-term
research direction, this period widened my technical perspective and prepared me to engage
with
more complex computational problems in the years that followed.
2012 - 2016
The Hardware Interface
B.Tech Electronics & Communication @ Vignan's University
This phase marked my transition from studying equations and theoretical principles to
understanding how real-world systems are built. Through embedded systems and signal
processing,
I learned how sensing, computation, and actuation come together to create functional
machines.
Working directly with sensors and hardware–software interfaces gave me hands-on experience
in
selecting the right components, designing system-level interactions, and writing code that
responds to real-world signals.
2010 - 2012
The First Principles
Math, Physics, Chemistry @ Sri Chaitanya Junior Kalasala
Built a strong analytical foundation through intensive study of mathematics, physics, and
chemistry — disciplines that shaped my early interest in problem-solving, systems thinking,
and
the underlying rules that govern how things work.
