I'm Rohit, a Computer Science student who enjoys thinking about how intelligence actually works—in machines, in markets, and occasionally in humans. I build AI systems not just to make them perform well, but to understand why they behave the way they do (and why they sometimes behave badly).
My work lives at the crossroads of AI, mathematics, and finance. I've built machine learning and deep learning projects using Python, PyTorch, and scikit-learn, explored trading strategies through backtesting, and worked on research projects like a multi-LLM framework for creative mathematics problem generation. I like turning abstract ideas into code—and then stress-testing my own assumptions until something breaks, preferably in simulation.
I enjoy both theory and practice. Mathematics feels like the cleanest language we have for describing reality, while AI feels like a slightly opinionated assistant that learns from examples and occasionally overfits to life. I care about clarity, rigor, and building models that behave sensibly outside ideal conditions—because the real world rarely reads the documentation.
At the moment, my research focus is on exploring how macroeconomic shocks and financial signals can be modeled using a combination of econometric methods (e.g., VAR frameworks) and machine learning approaches (e.g., LLM-based information extraction and agent-based simulations). I'm drawn to problems that are a bit messy, a bit uncomfortable, and usually more interesting than they first appear.
Experience

Skills
Programming
Python, SQL, MATLAB
Quantitative Methods
Time-series modeling, Bayesian methods, Monte Carlo simulation
Built an empathetic mental health chatbot leveraging Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture with open-source LLMs from Hugging Face.
The system uses LangChain for orchestrating prompts, memory, and retrieval modules, while Pinecone vector database handles efficient storage and
querying of vector embeddings. This architecture ensures contextually relevant and empathetic responses while maintaining accuracy in mental health information.

Built a broker network model using graph theory to identify influential market participants and detect anomalous trading behavior. Developed a portfolio optimization engine using Monte Carlo simulation and the Markowitz Model to estimate efficient frontiers and risk-adjusted returns. Designed a sentiment analysis pipeline to extract signals from financial news and integrate them into market models.
Developed a system where natural language trading strategies are converted into executable backtesting code using large language models. Built a secure sandboxed environment to evaluate generated strategies and ensure reproducibility, alongside performance analytics tools for evaluating trading strategies using risk-adjusted metrics.

LLM Ensemble: Multi-LLM framework for Creative Mathematics Problem Generation
Ohio Journal of School Mathematics (Under Review, 2025)
Conducted under the guidance of Prof. Michael Todd Edwards, this project proposes a
multi-LLM system to generate curriculum-aligned, cognitively rich math problems. Research
funded by the journal to support LLM experimentation and development.
An exploration of how algorithmic thinking and structured approaches can guide us through life's decisions and uncertainties. Reflections on the intersection of computer science, philosophy, and human experience.
