Sudeep Gandhe
I'm a PhD student at University of Southern California in Computer Science department. I am working at Institute for Creative Technologies under the guidance of my advisor Prof. David Traum. Before joining USC, I completed my B.Eng. in Computer Engineering from Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute, Mumbai, India.
