No mistakes, just whimsical adventures!

Hi, I'm Keerthana! I am a senior year CS student specializing in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. My work lies at the intersection of data, innovation, and human potential. With each line of code, I try to create systems that do more than process information — they reveal patterns, make predictions, and, in their own way, help shape a better future.

As an AI&ML enthusiast, sure, I’m all about building models and algorithms, but for me, it’s more than just crunching numbers. It’s like being a detective, solving mysteries hidden in data and figuring out how machines can actually help us make life a bit easier (and cooler).

In my exploration, I’ve found a small but captivating intersection where neuroscience meets AI. It’s here that I dream of crafting innovations that bridge biology and technology, turning the fantastical into reality. When I’m not geeking out over AI, you can probably find me with my head buried in linguistics, international relations, or the latest computational neuroscience topics.
