Projects & Achievements
Value at Risk Estimation
Researcher & Developer at MIT iQuHack 2026 (3rd Place, State Street x Classiq Challenge)
Developed a quantitative Value at Risk (VaR) estimation framework comparing classical Monte Carlo methods with a quantum-based estimator, demonstrating improved convergence for high-precision tail risk estimation. Designed an optimized quantile inversion pipeline for 95% VaR using interpolation-based search, reducing evaluation steps by 30–40%, and extended analysis to fat-tailed and skewed return distributions with CVaR and EVaR risk measures.
FinMate
Backend Engineer at CodeLinc 10 Hackathon (2nd Place, $2,500 Award)
Developed an AI-powered financial assistant using Claude Sonnet 4 via AWS Bedrock with a RAG-based agentic backend for personalized employee benefits guidance. Built a hybrid AWS stack with Lambda, API Gateway, S3, RDS (MySQL), and EC2, implementing secure CRUD operations, prompt engineering, and real-time retrieval optimization.
FlowIQ
Full Stack Developer
Engineered an AI-enhanced analytics and visualization platform that automates data tracking, insights generation, and performance optimization. Built a React + TypeScript frontend with Tailwind CSS, Recharts, and react-query, and a modular analytics engine designed for scalability with MongoDB and AWS/GCP integration.
