I am a motivated Computer Science and Engineering graduate with hands-on experience in cybersecurity and machine learning. During my internship at Paramount Computer Systems, I explored various cybersecurity domains, conducted strategy analysis on 'Defense in Depth' and 'Zero Trust' models, and studied the MITRE ATT&CK Framework. I also gained hands-on experience with Microsoft security offerings, including Azure and Microsoft 365.

At Under 25, I conducted over 120 AR Lens Studio workshops, reaching more than 4,000 attendees, and contributed as a Program Data Analyst, using data to inform strategic decisions. Additionally, I developed a machine learning-based anomaly detection system for surveillance videos using Python, TensorFlow, Keras, OpenCV, CNN, and DenseNet121. I've held leadership roles, such as Chairperson of the IEEE SB TKMCE Computer Society, and my certifications include CompTIA Security+ and the Microsoft Technology Associate certification in Python programming.

I hold a B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering from TKM College of Engineering, Kerala Technological University, and I'm CompTIA Security+ (SYO-701) certified. My education provided a strong foundation in cybersecurity, machine learning, and programming. I also took on leadership roles, such as serving as Chairperson of the IEEE SB TKMCE Computer Society.
