I am a Doctoral Candidate in Digital Humanities at IIT Jodhpur, where I am working to analyse the design, development, evaluation, and governance of language technologies via participatory and inclusive methods/frameworks. My work lies at the intersection of Machine Translation, Participatory design, and Digital archiving. I engage with speakers, authors, and translators of Jodhpur to explore the documentation, digitalisation, and revitalisation of Rajasthani (Marwari) language.

Supervisors: Dr. Manish Aggarwal and Dr. Gurujegan Murugesan
