Sneheil Saxena
Hi, I'm Sneheil! I'm a graduate student at the University of California, Irvine.
Previously, I worked at Qualcomm in their XR Research Division after graduating from UC San Diego with a bachelor's degree in Mathematics and Computer Science.
My research interests span the areas of machine learning, optimization, and statistical signal processing.
My work experience involves implementing controller-free handtracking, power & bandwidth profiling, web development, and automated testing.
I also love songwriting, audio engineering, and playing as many instruments as I can.

Sponsorship Lead, Triton Engineering Student Council, UC San Diego
I served as the Sponsorship Lead for the Triton Engineering Student Council (TESC), a non-profit student-run organization under the Jacobs School of Engineering at UC San Diego during 2019-2020.
My work involved raising funds through company sponsorships for a large variety of events that TESC hosts, including SD Hacks, Espresso (a startup career fair), and Decaf (a STEM career fair).
The funds raised went towards supporting over 40 student engineering organizations on campus.
