Master's in Computer Science at UVA
Software Engineering Intern at Uber ATG
Hi, I am Gaurav. I'm a Masters student pursuing Computer Science at the University of Virginia. I am interested in machine learning and artificial intelligence, with applications in natural language processing and computer vision. I graduated from Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IIT Roorkee) in 2018, with a major in Industrial Engineering and minor in Computer Science. Prior to joining UVa, I was working as a data scientist at OYO Rooms for a year. I was an active member of the Data Science Group at IIT Roorkee. This summer, I'm working as a Software Engineering Intern at Uber Advanced Technology Group (ATG).
