Hey, I'm Hrishi — a junior at Tulane University double-majoring in Computer Science and Mathematics (minors in AI and Business, 3.95 GPA) on a full-tuition South Asian Scholar merit award, based in New Orleans. I like building intelligent systems end to end: from the math underneath to the deployed product on top. Pre-dive check complete.
🔎 Recruiting for Summer 2027 SWE and AI/ML internships.
- 🛠️ Louisa AI — Software Engineer Intern, Embedded AI team · relationship-intelligence platform spun out of Goldman Sachs. Building production person-enrichment pipelines: open-web fallback enrichment, confidence-gated LLM identity judging, and trust-tier field reconciliation.
- 🗳️ Tulane Data & AI Collective (TUDAI) — Research Assistant · co-authored a paper accepted at AAMAS 2026 on optimal positional scoring rules in computational social choice. Currently exploring social-choice methods for retrieval in multi-agent RAG.
- 🧑🏫 Tulane Computer Science — Teaching Assistant, CMPS 3160 (Data Science) & CMPS 1500 (Intro CS) · weekly labs and office hours for 50+ students.
- 🤖 Niyogin AI — AI Intern · designed and deployed an NLP pipeline for automated document digitization at 97% precision.
- 📊 ITI Growth Opportunities — Intern · researched and presented GenAI applications across industries.
Where the activity is. Six builds I keep coming back to:
RAG system over 1,000+ FIA regulation and steward-decision PDFs that explains Formula 1 incidents with rule-grounded citations.
- GenAI Ops experiments on chunking, embeddings, and context size lifted citation coverage 60% → 93%
- Python · Gradio · LLM APIs · RAG
Dixon-Coles bivariate Poisson model fit via MLE on 15,494 international matches, priced by an LMSR automated market maker over 100K Monte Carlo tournament simulations.

Older builds, still worth the swim-through:
- 🧭 Wikipedia Race — bidirectional BFS pathfinding game across Wikipedia
- 🐋 Ocean Jukebox — 131 NOAA hydrophone recordings, browsable by ear
- 🌊 ReefGuardian — serverless AWS pipeline over NOAA sea-surface temperatures, flagging coral-bleaching hotspots
- 🎸 GigPilot — multi-agent live-music booking marketplace
Live telemetry from the bottom. The two instrument readouts regenerate every night from my actual GitHub activity:
Three minutes before surfacing. Off the keyboard I'm a PADI Master Scuba Diver and underwater videographer — 80 dives logged, with Komodo, Indonesia as my favorite site — and I think a lot about where intelligent systems and ocean conservation can meet. Also: Formula 1 weekends, a long-running Wordle streak, and the occasional ruthless Monopoly tournament.
