PhD Student · Federated Learning and Agentic AI
I build federated learning frameworks and multi-agent development systems. My research sits at the intersection of trustworthy distributed ML, human-on-the-loop AI agents, and developer experience for AI-assisted software.

Multi-domain support-triage agent: routes tickets across HackerRank, Claude, and Visa corpuses with corpus-grounded responses, async batching, and prompt-injection defense.
Poster · NE Agents Day 2026 · May 8, 2026
Reframes multi-agent coding as an interpretability problem via three pillars: Monitor (OpenTelemetry / Jaeger / Prometheus observability), Communicate (agents request clarification on ambiguous requirements), and Control (bounded repair loops for deliberate recovery).

Although Federated Learning (FL) enhances clients' security and privacy by retaining data locally, the decentralized nature of this paradigm exposes it to diverse malicious actions as well as technological and reliability issues that can degrade data quality, hinder convergence, and reduce global model accuracy.
