Hey, I'm Raghavi 👋

Grad student at George Mason, curious about how AI is changing education and what data can tell us about the systems we learn in. I like building things, breaking things down to understand them, and figuring out how technology intersects with real people's lives.

Things I've Worked On

Graduate Research

Security & Privacy Threat Modeling for an IoT Disaster Relief System

Designed and analyzed a communication system for emergency scenarios where normal infrastructure fails. The interesting part was layering multiple analysis frameworks on top of each other — using PASTA for threat modeling, STRIDE for attack surface mapping, and LINDDUN for privacy risks — then pulling it all together into one coherent picture of what could go wrong and how to fix it.

Machine Learning

Diabetes Prediction from Health Data

Built classification models to predict diabetes likelihood using the Pima Indians dataset. This was my first deep dive into the full ML pipeline — cleaning messy health data, engineering features, training and comparing models (Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes, SVM), and thinking about what it means to use algorithms for decisions that affect real people.

Literature Review

RadioMic: Sensing Sound Through Radio Waves

Deep dive into a research system that uses millimeter-wave radar to detect and reconstruct sound from object vibrations — no microphone needed. I analyzed the signal processing pipeline, the deep learning components, and spent a lot of time thinking about the privacy and surveillance implications of technology like this.

What I'm Into

AI in Education
How AI tools can support learning and where they fall short, especially in public school systems
Data & Analytics
Python, SQL, Tableau, Power BI — turning messy data into something that tells a story
Research Methods
Mixed-methods design, thematic analysis, survey data — understanding problems from multiple angles
Machine Learning
Classification, NLP, feature engineering — building models and thinking about what they mean
Security & Privacy
Threat modeling, risk assessment, and understanding how systems can be both useful and harmful
AI Ethics & Policy
Who benefits from AI systems, who gets left out, and how policy decisions shape those outcomes
