Avichal's story

Other than wanting to put into practice his Mandarin, it was Achival's first time working in a fast-paced environment. As a result, he was able to use his technical skills to solve real-world problems in a professional setting. This experience has cemented his interest in applied AI, and he'll build his career based on how it'll benefit society. 

"I worked at Aiello, a 50-person startup with a 30-engineer team, that develops AI-powered products for the hospitality industry, such as an AI concierge for hotels. My primary role involved researching voice-to-voice models. I developed various proof-of-concept demos to improve the responsiveness and overall quality of their voice agent systems. This position was centered on enhancing real-world voice AI applications."

"I learned that I thrive on a good challenge. It was an incredible experience that taught me I'm not just a student who understands theory, but a builder who can apply complex ideas in real-world settings."
