About Me

I am a Computer Science undergraduate specializing in AI & Machine Learning, driven by curiosity and a strong desire to build technology that actually matters.
My interests lie at the intersection of AI systems, scalable web platforms, and decentralized technologies.

Rather than limiting myself to theory, I focus heavily on hands-on development, live projects, and hackathons where ideas are tested under real constraints.

What defines my approach:

• Constantly experimenting with AI, ML, Agentic AI, and modern full-stack tools
• Strong inclination towards product-focused engineering and user-centric design
• Actively exploring domains like mental wellness technology and intelligent systems
• Enjoy solving complex bugs and edge cases that most people avoid
