Teaching

I've been the teaching assistant (and mentor) for the 'Research Project in Machine Learning and Data Science' course at Aalto University for two semesters (Sept-Jan 2016 and 2017). We got two WWW'17 posters out of these projects.
While at IIIT-H, I taught Python programming for Masters students from non-CS backgrounds (class of 40 students).

Service

I've been a reviewer for WSDM'16 and 2017, sub-reviewer for WWW and ICWSM 2016, 2017.

Debating

There's a pretty lively debating scene at Aalto University, and Helsinki in general. I was quite active in it, being a member of the board and winning a tournament :) (Turku Open)

Travelling

Travel is one my passions. My current country count is 38 (meaning, I've visited at least one city in each of those 38 countries).
Some crazy places I've been to include Tibet (trekking at 5500 meters), Svalbard (northernmost settlement in the world), Atacama desert in Northern Chile.

Comics

Inspired by Sarah Andersen and PhD Comics, I'm trying to learn to draw comics, mostly based on my life as a PhD student.
I'm very very bad, but here are some initial sketches.
I realized after getting into it, that getting the story right is pretty hard :)
My ultimate objective is to create an illustrated comic book about my PhD life... Lets see.. :)
