Bio:

I am currently a Research Assistant working on Computer Vision in Robotics at Simon Fraser University, Canada. With 1.5 years of R$D experience in Robotics, AI and Computer Vision , I am passionate about promoting STEM, especially among women.

I am a mentor for AI4ALL, a Stanford University initiative to promote AI among high school students. I have also contributed as a mentor/organizer to various tech workshops as a part of Canada Learning Code, Code-Coffee Vancouver, and PyLadies Remote. These workshops are a great platform for people of diverse age group who want to learn computer programming and other technical skills in a collaborative way.
