Sophomore at Tufts University, studying Computer Science interested in Backend Development, AI, and Machine Learning. Currently deepening my skills in backend systems and ML fundamentals.
I enjoy building things that work under the hood. I like taking on projects that push me to learn something new, and I'm big on writing code that's not just functional, but maintainable.
