About Me

I'm a Computer Science Engineering student at Techno Main Salt Lake, interested in software engineering, product development, and the craft of making technology feel clear rather than intimidating.

My work sits across code, design, and communication. I've built hackathon products under pressure, led teams and communities, pitched ideas on stage, and designed interfaces that try very hard not to look like they were assembled by a caffeine-powered template generator.

I'm currently sharpening my DSA, backend engineering, full-stack architecture, and system design skills while building projects that solve real problems and tell a strong product story.
