Hello There!

Thanks for dropping by! You can call me Sriharsh - or simply Harsh. I work in NLP, and love reading, observing, telling and analysing stories. I also write a little, dabble in photography, go for runs, follow and play football, and make lots of spotify playlists.

I’m pursuing a Master’s in Computational Linguistics at the University of Washington, Seattle, currently being advised by Dr. Maria Antoniak for my Master’s Thesis in Narrative Understanding. Prior to this, I studied Computer Science at IIIT-Hyderabad, India and worked for almost four years as an NLP Data Scientist at Klevu Oy, an AI startup that builds discovery tools for ecommerce websites. I recently received the Best Paper award for my work on generating character arcs from narratives at Text2Story@ECIR, 2022 under the guidance of Dr. Manish Shrivastava. My first book of poems, sorting through paperwork after midnight was published by Authorspress in 2019. My apologies if you were one of the unsuspecting readers who stumbled across it.

I am looking for opportunities in applied science, machine learning and natural language processing in the Seattle area. Please let me know if you think I’m a good fit!
