Hi there! I'm Sneha and a Software Development Engineer at Amazon. I graduated May'17 from the University of Pennsylvania with a Master's in Computer Science. I have previously worked for Audible, Pluribus Networks, VMware, and Avaya as a Software Engineer Intern.

I am passionate about AI and working with data. My research focus at Penn was in the fields of Machine Learning, NLP, and Deep learning. I am also very enthusiastic about supporting women in technology and I'm currently working towards helping students in STEAM fields to find mentorship and support.
