## About

```text
At CodeAlpha, I built and shipped three end-to-end machine learning projects in a 30-day sprint, covering data cleaning, exploratory analysis, feature engineering, model training, and evaluation. My UK car-price model reached 92.03% R with a £1,983 MAE.

For my Pakistan unemployment analysis, I used 13 years of official PBS labour-force data to forecast unemployment and create an interactive dashboard. I surfaced youth unemployment trends across provinces and gender.

I'm completing a Software Engineering degree specializing in Data Science and Machine Learning, and I'm building CropSense AI as my final-year project. The crop-intelligence platform concept integrates satellite imagery, climate data, and soil data to support agricultural decision-making.
