Ali Kuwajerwala
Master's student in AI & Robotics @ Mila/UdeM
Hi there! š
My name is Ali and Iām a soon-to-be-graduating masterās student at Mila & the University of MontrĆ©al, supervised by Prof. Liam Paull at the Montreal Robotics and Embodied AI Lab. Iām quite passionate about AI and robotics research, and engaged in the quest to understand and simulate intelligence. The ConceptFusion and ConceptGraphs papers which I worked on during my masters are small steps towards this goal.
I am currently actively seeking out work opportunities for both full-time roles and internships. Iām open to relocation and non-robotics roles, what matters to me is working on important problems! You can take a look at my resume here. If youād like to get in touch, please donāt hesitate to email me at alihusein.kuwajerwala@x, x=umontreal.ca, or on Twitter/LinkedIn!
Previously, I interned at the Alexa AI team at Amazon, where I worked on using large language models for querying databases. In between my undergrad and masterās I was a student researcher at the Robot, Vision and Learning Lab at the University of Toronto supervised by Prof. Florian Shkurti where I worked on visual navigation for mobile robots. Iāve also worked in software engineering roles at Epson and Liquid Analytics.
My undergrad was at the Univeristy of Toronto where I studied CS & Math, and also worked as a Teaching Assistant. During my time there I was co-founder of the UTM Robotics Club, and a recipient of the NSERC Undergraduate Student Research Award.
Iāve also worked on a couple of fun coding projects which you can look at via my github profile.
When Iām not staring at a screen all day, you can find me training jiu-jitsu, listening to audiobooks and podcasts, doodling, and/or chatting with wonderful people on my podcast. āļø
