My first blog

Namaste! This site was developed by me using Gatsby. This is my first blog post. First of all, thank you for being here.

About Me

I am a senior undergraduate student at IIT Kanpur, majoring in Electrical Engineering & Computer Science. I am interested in problems in machine learning and algorithms with real-world applications.

I love developing and applying machine learning algorithms. I also regularly contribute towards Open Source Softwares like SymPy, Turing.jl (Julia) and PyMC4 and have been part of Google Summer of Code 2019.

Life Motto

I try to live my life based on the following motto by the great Great Swami Vivekanand:

Arise! Awake! and stop not till the goal is reached.

I would like to end my blog post with an inspiring poem by Shri Rabindranath Tagore :

Where the mind is without fear and the head held high;

Where knowledge is free;

Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;

Where words come out from the depth of truth;

Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;

Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;

Where the mind is led forward by Thee into ever-widening thought and action;

Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

Namaskaram _/\_
