About

Hello, I'm Rupesh Kumar, I'm really passionate about using technology to solve problems having real impact. Numbers, data, and systems have always fascinated me, and I enjoy analyzing patterns and building solutions that create real impact. My journey so far includes developing projects like Rakshak, a road safety device to provide immediate health support in case of road accidents and a Sign Language Translator using machine learning. Alongside technology, I have a growing interest in the financial markets and finance. I aim to keep learning, experimenting, and applying my skills to meaningful challenges. Beyond academics and projects, I value thoughtful conversations, continuous growth, and new opportunities to collaborate.
