Kshitijaa Jaglan

Data, Networks, Open Source

I am Kshitijaa Jaglan - a PhD student at Social Computing Group, University of Zürich. My interests lie in Networks (graphs), AI+ML, and using tech-y stuff for social good. Oh and yes definitely [TW?] cats too.

Given enough food and time, I also enjoy making seemingly random tools out of boredom/utility. Check out this if you want to learn Hiragana, or this if you want a WhatsApp desktop app for Linux.

Fun fact:

I also discovered a bug leaking data of 100,000+ students (reported and mitigated). The data included personal information like address, phone number, email, parent's name etc. As you might've gotten a hint already, one of my other domains of interest is privacy (and fairness!).

Feel free to reach out at kjaglan[at ]ifi[d0t]uzh{dot}ch if you would want to have a chat about anything!
