Education

B.S. Computer Science
Expected Graduation: May 2028

I am currently a sophomore pursuing a computer science degree at UTSA. I was originally raised in Atlanta, GA, but have lived around the world in places like Canada, Nigeria, and Denmark, finally graduating from high school in India. In my free time, I enjoy biking, coding, playing basketball, and flying FPV drones. I love solving problems and learning new things. My specific areas of interest are automation, ML/DL, and software engineering.
