About Aarav C.

I published my first peer-reviewed paper on machine learning before I finished high school.That might sound like an unusual starting point, but it captures who I am: someone who doesn\'t wait for permission to do serious work.I\'m now a freshman at the University of Washington (class of 2029), and I\'ve hit the ground running. I serve as an ASUW Student Senator, representing the interests of students and drafting legislation on financial aid access for international and non-resident students. I\'m a UW CIRCLE Ambassador, where I help international students like myself find community in a new country.My research background is in AI and applied mathematics. My ML paper on predicting India\'s CO2 emissions is published in the International Journal of Advanced Artificial Intelligence (DOI: 10.5120/jaai202657). A second paper on applied mathematics theory is published in JRPS (DOI: 10•••76/jrps.v15.i2.18). Both came from genuine curiosity, not coursework.I also write Hariyali ki Chaddar, an environmental blog, because I believe sustainability conversations need to happen in the languages where the most people live.Outside of work: I paint. I\'ve done production for UW\'s Raas Dance Team. I taught art to children at Apna Ghar Ashram in Jaipur. I was Head Boy of a school.I\'m interested in the intersection of data, policy, and people, and I\'m always open to conversations about research, entrepreneurship, student governance, or sustainability.
