I've always been fascinated by how software can solve real-world problems, which is why I naturally gravitated toward building things with code. Over the past few months, I've developed a couple React-based applications where I focused heavily on API integration and user experience.

My first project was a movie poster discovery app that pulled data from The Movie Database API, allowing users to explore posters and metadata for their favorite films. Another was a full-stack travel assistant app where I integrated a weather API, Google Places API, and a news API to provide real-time updates on weather, local attractions, and current events.

The third was more backend-focused: I used FastAPI to serve a custom LLM (language model) that generated code snippets based on a selected difficulty level.

Beyond personal projects, I also actively participate in tech competitions. I recently won a technical event hosted at MIT, securing a cash prize of over ₹5000.

What drives me most is the thrill of bringing an idea to life and winning competitions. Whether it's a tool that helps users plan their trips better or a fun way to browse movies, I love building solutions with like minded individuals to solve problems.
