Projects
endangeredvoice
EndangeredVoice is a digital awareness platform dedicated to protecting species at risk of extinction. It connects conservationists, students, and global citizens through blogs, visual storytelling, and community engagement. The platform highlights endangered animals, explains key ecological challenges, and encourages meaningful action. By combining research, creativity, and technology, EndangeredVoice fosters a deeper understanding of biodiversity and the urgency of preservation.
Deforestation Detection — YOLOv11 + Satellite
This project leverages the YOLOv11 object detection model to identify and monitor deforestation from satellite imagery. By training on diverse forest datasets, the model detects areas of tree loss with high precision and speed. The system integrates AI-driven analytics with geospatial visualization to track environmental degradation over time. It aims to support conservation efforts, policymaking, and sustainable land-use management through accessible, real-time data insights.
Internship Experience
Intern, Itseez3D, Inc
July 2025 – August 2025
Itseez3D is an AI startup developing CraftStory, an innovative platform that leverages artificial intelligence to generate personalized videos and images for storytelling, marketing, and creative design.
My Contribution:
During my internship, I specialized in AI prompt engineering, focusing on designing and optimizing prompts to achieve highly realistic, creative, and high-quality visual outputs. My work enhanced the platform’s effectiveness, helping creators and businesses generate professional-grade visuals efficiently and making AI-powered content creation more accessible to a wider audience.
