I am a second year graduate student at Language Technologies Institute, School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University. I completed graduation with honors  in Information Technology from Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad in July 2007.

I work on TeamTalk project, under the supervision of Alex Rudnicky.  My primary area of interest spans in the spectrum between Natural Language Processing, Speech Processing and Information Retrieval, and anything interdisciplinary between Computer Science and Cognitive Science. I wish to study Psychology some day.
