Who I am

I am a software engineering student who builds and ships end-to-end systems. My work focuses on writing maintainable backend services, integrating them with modern frontends, and deploying them reliably to production environments.

I am especially interested in applying GenAI in a controlled, product-oriented way, where it assists users rather than replacing core logic.

I am seeking internship and full-time SWE roles and actively contribute to open-source projects.

What I can reliably deliver

• End-to-end full-stack features with clear ownership
• Backend services with structured APIs and data models
• Cloud-deployed applications using containerized workflows
• GenAI-assisted features embedded into real user flows

I prioritize systematic engineering, clarity, and long-term maintainability over rapid but fragile development.
