Local and Community Support
My commitment extends beyond the digital world into the very neighborhoods of our communities with the leverage of technology in my work.
Education for the Underprivileged
I facilitate technology access and education to help close the digital divide. This includes teaching the children of household staff and volunteering with NGOs to provide instruction.
Sustainable Community Development
Building Better Villages
Spearheaded a transformative infrastructure initiative for Jhajar district, Haryana, focused on scalable solutions including water filtration and biogas power. The project prioritized community empowerment by training local residents, particularly women homemakers, to operate the technologies, aiming to improve living conditions and create self-sufficiency and employment opportunities via a ripple-effect.
This proposal was selected as a finalist for presentation at IIIT-Delhi's "Building Better Villages" tech event.
GIS Framework for Environmental Monitoring
Developed a GIS-based web framework for real-time river pollution monitoring under the guidance of Dr. Madhuri Kumari. Using open-source tools, the platform provides critical data to stakeholders, empowering environmental researchers within the Government of India to inform policy and advocate for sustainable water quality practices.

Enhancing Healthcare Accessibility
Rita pod - an AI rich community experience
Collaborated with Kamily Staryga (CEO, Rita Health) and Simran Kaur (ex-Meta PM) to develop Rita-pod at the SPC Hackathon, sponsored by South Park Commons and OpenAI. The platform transforms the fertility journey into a community-driven experience, using AI and medically-validated assessments to connect women at similar stages. It features real-time misinformation correction, voice input, emotional recognition, and personalized peer support.
Eye health assessment
I conducted research at CCFIS to study the emulation of eye and ear charts on mobile devices. The project assessed whether mobile-friendly formats increase user engagement with preliminary vision and hearing tests, aiming to improve healthcare accessibility through technology.
