About Me

I'm Suryansh Shakya, a sophomore at BITS Pilani, passionate about machine learning and artificial intelligence. My journey in tech began in 3rd grade with language called BASIC.
Currently, I'm focusing on deep learning architectures, ASR and NLP. I enjoy tackling complex problems and building solutions that have real-world impact.
When I'm not coding or playing with LLMs, you can find me photographing landscapes, playing football, or watching Anime ;)
