About
Engineering graduate (Thapar Institute, 2025) with a Dual Certification in Data Science & AI and hands-on analytics experience across consulting, banking and data science. At Ernst & Young, built a Python ETL and validation engine with a KPI dashboard that cut manual review effort by ~60%. At First Quadrant Labs, delivered two end-to-end analytical projects on datasets of 225,000+ and 230,000+ records — including identifying data leakage that would have produced a misleading model. Strong in SQL, Python, Advanced Excel and Power BI, with banking domain knowledge from HDFC Bank (FLEXCUBE, KYC/AML). Focused on validating data before analysing it, and translating findings into decisions non-technical stakeholders can act on.

First Quadrant Labs
Jul 2026 - Sep 2026
Network Traffic Classification: built an ensemble intrusion-detection pipeline on 225,000+ network flows (CICIDS2017, 78 features) — resolved infinite flow-rate values, removed 2,633 duplicate records and 10 zero-variance columns, and benchmarked three classifiers to 99.99% accuracy and F1 on a stratified held-out set, reducing false positives. Accident Severity Prediction: developed a Gradient Boosting model on 230,000+ real-world records with 108 engineered features, achieving ROC-AUC 0.84 (5-fold CV 0.841 ± 0.009) on a severely imbalanced dataset (0.44% positive class). Identified and excluded outcome-leakage fields that would have inflated the score to 0.92 while making the model unusable in deployment; recommended an operating threshold capturing 79% of fatal cases within 31% of flagged records, delivered through a stakeholder report, executive presentation and interactive dashboard.
