Software Engineer / ML
Building on the web

I craft digital experiences with a focus on intelligent systems, performance, and robust engineering. Turning complex algorithms into elegant interfaces.

About Me

I'm a Full-Stack and AI Engineer deeply interested in building intelligent systems from scratch. Currently studying Computer Science with an AI/ML Minor at Bennett University, I span the stack from high-performance frontend interfaces to complex, agentic backend architectures.

Whether it's implementing Transformers from first principles, orchestrating RAG pipelines, or optimizing web applications for thousands of users—I focus on rigorous engineering and turning complex algorithms into robust, deployed products.
