My name is Christopher Rashidian and I am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Technology at Purdue University focusing on Conversational Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Natural Language Processing Models. In addition to being a Doctor of Technology graduate student, I am a researcher at the Research Center for Open Digital Innovation at Purdue University where my research focuses on bridging the gap in human language and machine/computer understanding and I am passionate about the future of human-machine interactions and AI-driven conversations along with linguistic and cultural nuances by bridging social and technological divide.

In my free time, hanging out with my cats, or trying out new recipes in my kitchen, or hanging out with my family and friends.
