Hello! I’m Anmol. I am currently a Graduate MS Student at Carnegie Mellon University in the School of Computer Science! My research interests broadly lie in Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. I am currently working on problems in AI-assisted code generation and alignment.

Prior to CMU, I spent a wonderful year as a Research Fellow at Microsoft Research India in the AI4Code group where I explored various aspects of code generation and large language models.

I completed my undergraduate studies at IIIT-Hyderabad, where I did research at Precog Lab under the guidance of Prof. Ponnurangam Kumaraguru. My work there focused on Information Retrieval and Natural Language Processing. I also worked with Prof. K Madhava Krishna at the Robotics Research Center, to enhance environment maps for Visual-Language Robot Navigation tasks.

I believe the most impactful research questions are derived from real world problems. Hence, I wish to apply my engineering and research skills to tackle the world’s most complex technology challenges.

I’m seeking internship opportunities for Summer 2025. If you think I’d be a good fit for your team, please reach out!
