Software Engineering Intern & CS Student
Building elegant solutions to complex problems with modern web technologies
About Me
I'm a second-year Computer Science student with a passion for building elegant, user-centric web applications. My journey into tech started with curiosity about how things work, and it's evolved into a deep commitment to creating software that's both powerful and user-friendly. What drives me is the intersection of creativity and logic—software engineering lets me solve complex problems while building experiences that people actually enjoy using.
Currently, I'm working as a Software Engineering Intern, where I've had the opportunity to contribute to production systems serving thousands of users. This hands-on experience has taught me that great software isn't just about writing code—it's about understanding users, anticipating edge cases, and building for maintainability. I've reduced page load times by 40% through React optimization, developed features that improved user engagement by 25%, and collaborated with senior engineers on architecture decisions.
What sets me apart is my technical breadth. While many developers specialize early, I've deliberately explored Full Stack development, Linux systems, IoT hardware, and Cybersecurity. This diverse foundation helps me see the bigger picture and build solutions that consider the entire system, from user interface to infrastructure security. I'm equally comfortable building responsive frontends with React and TypeScript as I am configuring Linux servers or programming Arduino sensors.
I'm drawn to projects that challenge me to think beyond the obvious solution. Whether it's optimizing a wedding planning app for real users, implementing secure hotel booking systems, or building IoT sensor networks, I approach each project as an opportunity to learn and deliver something meaningful. I'm looking for 2025 summer internships where I can contribute to impactful projects while continuing to grow as a well-rounded software engineer.
