I am a PhD student in Computer Science at Arizona State University. Im advised by Dr. Vivek Gupta | CoRAL (Complex data Reasoning & Analysis Lab). I also closely work with Prof. Pavan Turaga | GML (Geometric Media Lab). Earlier, I completed my undergraduate studies at KLE Technological University, advised by Prof. Uma Mudenagudi | CeVI (Center for Visual Intelligence).

My research focuses on personalized and trustworthy evaluation for multimodal large language models (MLLMs). I design explainable, agent-driven evaluation frameworks that adapt to user intent, data modality, and task specificity, enabling transparent and robust performance assessment across tables, charts, images, structured documents, and multi-document reasoning.

Broadly, I work at the intersection of:

Personalized Evaluation
Explainable AI & Attribution
Structured / Tabular / Chart Understanding
Multimodal Alignment
Open-World & 3D Representation Learning
Human-Centric AI

My long-term goal is to build evaluation systems that are aligned, trustworthy, and grounded enough to support real-world, mission-critical workflows.
