Hello, my name is Tushar. I’m a postgraduate computer science student at the University of Hyderabad. Outside the classroom, I am a software developer focused particularly on the intersection of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. I enjoy building user-centric products and systems that solve real-life problems. If I am not on my computer, I’m most probably reading books, enjoying road trips, or writing to express insights.
