I am a second-year doctoral student currently working on improving the tutoring abilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) in order for them to fill in gaps in education systems across the world. I primarily focus on high school math education but am open to other subjects.
I did my Bachelor's Thesis on Masked Adverserial Auto Encoders supervised by Arnab Kumar Mondal and Prof. Prathosh AP
in 2019 and my Master's Thesis on Collecting High Quality Tutoring Conversations supervised by Nico Daheim and Prof. Mrinmaya Sachan
in 2023. My Master's Thesis won the Fitz Kutter Award for best Industrially Oriented Thesis in Switzerland.
My hobbies include watching historical videos on youtube, collecting random trivia facts and writing.
I am open to collaborations in both Education and NLP, feel free to reach out to me on my ETH Email ID
