MS Bioinformatics Candidate|NGS & ML Pipelines|Computational Biology
Building reproducible NGS pipelines and machine learning models for biological data — focused on automation, measurable impact, and translational applications.
I'm an MS Bioinformatics candidate at Northeastern University (expected May 2027), with prior training in bioinformatics and microbiology from Osmania University. My graduate work sits at the intersection of structural biology, NGS genomics, and software engineering — with hands-on experience on HPC (SLURM) and implementing core algorithms from scratch in Python.
Based in Austin, TX — actively seeking co-op and entry-level roles in computational biology, NGS analysis, ML for biology, and translational genomics.
NGS analysis, variant calling, structural modeling, and docking.
Deep learning for image segmentation and biological feature extraction.
Reproducible, automated workflows with Git, Bash, and Python tooling.
A collection of bioinformatics projects from Northeastern and Osmania — spanning algorithms implemented from scratch, NGS pipelines on HPC, software packaging, and structural biology.
BioHack 2026 — Northeastern University
Developed an ML pipeline for automated cell segmentation within a 48-hour hackathon, applying image processing techniques to segment cell boundaries from microscopy data.
Northeastern University — BINF6400
Implemented UPGMA from scratch in Python for phylogenetic tree construction; built a supervised classifier for coding vs. non-coding sequences using feature engineering.
Northeastern University — BINF6400
Built end-to-end paired-end QC pipeline on the Explorer HPC cluster (SLURM); achieved >95% read retention post-trimming with automated MultiQC reporting.
Northeastern University — BINF6400
Implemented a greedy overlap-based genome assembler with coverage visualization; PWM motif-first ORF pipeline detecting 20 high-confidence ORFs across 20 sequences.
Northeastern University — BINF6200
Engineered a modular CCDS parsing package using OOP, decorators, and list comprehensions — achieving 96% test coverage and a perfect pylint score.
Northeastern University — BINF6200
Implemented Smith-Waterman and Needleman-Wunsch alignment algorithms; analyzed transcription factor binding motifs via PSSM correlated with gene expression data.
Osmania University
Structural analysis of GLT6D1 via BLAST, 3D homology modeling (MODELLER), and molecular docking (AutoDock); validated model quality with Ramachandran plot and DOPE scoring, identifying key binding-site interactions.
A combined timeline of graduate study at Northeastern, prior training at Osmania University, and direct patient-care experience — shaping my practical, cross-disciplinary approach to bioinformatics.
