I am a Researcher working on problems intersecting the areas of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine or Deep Learning (ML/DL). As a Lecturer at Surrey Institute for People-centred AI, and the Department of Computer Science at the University of Surrey, I co-teach the NLP module. I am also teaching NLP at the Indian Institute of Information Technology Lucknow, as a Visiting Faculty.

The focus of my research is Machine Translation; working with Prof. Sabine Braun, Prof. ‪Constantin Orăsan, Dr. Félix do Carmo and other colleagues.

Other than that, my interests also lie in the NLP sub-areas of Cognitive NLP, Distributional and Lexical Semantics, Multimodality/Multilingualism in NLP, Sentiment/Emotion Analysis; and Teaching. I graduated with a Joint PhD from the IITB-Monash Research Academy ( IIT Bombay, India & Monash University, Australia ) in 2021; and was advised by Prof. Pushpak Bhattacharyya, Prof. Gholamreza Haffari, and Prof. Malhar Kulkarni.

Before starting my PhD, I was a Research Engineer at the CFILT Lab, IIT Bombay, India, where my investigations led to publications in diverse sub-areas of NLP and AI.
