About

I've attended my bachelor's degree at HiLCoE School of Computer Science and Technology, with a major in computer science.

I believe in tackling problems head-on to create solutions that foster connection and simplify lives. There's nothing quite like the satisfaction of knowing that my work contributes to making a difference in people's daily experiences.
