Hi, I'm Nakul, a Cyber Officer in the United States Army.

I commissioned as a 2LT from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 2024 with a BSc in Computer Science (Honors) and Mathematical Sciences (Honors). Upon graduation, I attended Northeastern University on an MIT Lincoln Labs Miltary Fellowship to pursue an MSc in Computer Science, focusing on Compiler Technology. At Lincoln Labs I worked with Group 31 -- Systems and Architectures -- of the Air, Maritime, and Missile Defense Division. I graduated from Northeastern in April of 2026.

In my spare time, I enjoy stories, endurance sports, photography, and travel. If you'd like to chat about any or all of those things, feel free to reach out!
