Anyone who has ever been able to sustain good work has had at least one person, and often many, who have believed in him.
~ Fred Rogers
I am the sum of countless acts of patience and trust from brilliant and kind researchers who have shaped my personal and professional growth:
- Prof. Min Xu, Carnegie Mellon University
- Prof. Dan Roth, University of Pennsylvania
- Prof. Vivek Gupta, Arizona State University
- Prof. Samit Bhattacharya, Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati
- Prof. Chandan Karfa, Indian Institute of Technology, Guwahati
- Prof. Mehmet Mercangoz , Imperial College London & ETH-Zurich
- Prof. Satish Panda, Indian Institute of Technology, Bhubaneswar
Of course, this list would be incomplete without my parents, my first advisors in life. My mother is a doctor, and she inspired me to ensure that my path in technology is always geared toward social good and helping people. My father, a software engineer, encouraged me to pursue excellence in my field and to constantly push the boundaries of what I can achieve.
