At NEON, I am building digital humans that are hyper realistic and can be used in various marketing, sales and service scenarios! I’m building out the NLP/conversational AI engines to make our experiences with digital humans friendlier and more intelligent. We work with emotional context extraction and enhanced NLU to guide better dialogue between humans and NEONs. I was previously responsible for the generation of realistic facial behavior and expressions and body motion given multi-modal control inputs using various generative AI techniques and motion models.

I've done research in the areas of Information retrieval for recommendations and personalization. My expertise lies as a machine learning engineer, integrating ML pipelines in the entire software development life cycle stack, as well as a software engineer, building the back-end for a distributed data engineering product in a mid-sized start-up, coupled with my research exposure in multi-modal machine learning and generative AI.
