What I'm looking for

I seek entry-level ML or software engineering roles where I can deploy predictive models, build automation, and grow technically in collaborative teams that value real-world impact and mentorship.

I am a computer science student focused on machine learning and software engineering, with internship experience building high-accuracy grid fault classifiers and deploying automation systems that scaled customer support. I combine hands-on model development with practical deployment and results-oriented engineering.

I teach and mentor young coders, hold cybersecurity certifications, and contribute to research and entrepreneurship efforts; my work has earned research awards and measurable performance gains in real-world projects.
