What I'm looking for

I seek engineering roles building scalable full‑stack, blockchain, or IoT systems where I can apply ML, smart contracts, and cloud deployment to deliver real-world impact.

I am a Computer Science Engineering student specializing in Internet of Things with hands-on experience building full-stack applications, AI/ML models, and blockchain solutions across national hackathons and academic projects.

I have engineered production-grade systems such as a real-time safety app with 95% detection accuracy, an ML-powered budgeting system with R²=0.92, and decentralized platforms integrating Solidity smart contracts and zkSync for cost-efficient transactions.

My projects span telematics hardware, genomic variant analysis, threat detection, and water-forecasting platforms, demonstrating strengths in React/Next.js, Python, Solidity, Docker, and cloud deployment to deliver scalable, secure systems.

I lead and collaborate well — winning multiple hackathons, serving as IEEE vice chairperson, and managing large college events — and I focus on pragmatic, impact-driven engineering that solves real-world problems.
