Bio

I’m a Computer Science student at the University of Waterloo with a passion for full-stack development, AI, and cloud computing. I thrive on building scalable solutions, from AI-driven applications to robust web platforms.

What I bring:
- Experience in full-stack development using React, Angular, Kotlin, and Firebase
- Strong backend knowledge with SQL, Node.js, and cloud services like Azure
- AI/ML experience, including TensorFlow, OpenAI API, and deep learning models
- A track record of optimizing performance—reducing debugging time, automating testing, and improving system responsiveness

Open to collaborating on innovative projects that push boundaries in AI, cloud, and full-stack development!
