About Me

I'm Bhargav, a second-year graduate student from University of Southern California, majoring in Computer Science. I am looking for full-time opportunities as a Software Engineer after my graduation (May 2019). My interests are full-stack software development, machine learning and data analytics.

I'm currently interning this fall as a Software Developer at Emotive, a startup based in Los Angeles, California. I developed the core features of the product using Django and built the frontend using HTML, CSS and AngularJS.

I'm also enthusiastic about machine learning and deep learning. During my senior year in my undergrad, I interned at Bosch, where I developed a deep learning convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm, to detect disorders in the eye. I used Python and libraries such as Theano, Lasagne and Tensorflow to build the neural network and train it. My project improved the performance of the model, achieving an accuracy of 92%.

My interests outside the computer sciences include, but not limited to, movies, soccer, playing video games and listening to podcasts.
