I build systems that think.
Computer Science graduate student at Cleveland State University with a strong background in full-stack development, data structures, and system design. Experienced in Java, React, Node.js, and Spring Boot — with a focus on performance, reliability, and real-world impact.
Developer, builder, problem solver.
I'm a Computer Science graduate student at Cleveland State University (graduating May 2026) with a strong foundation in full-stack development, data structures, and system design.
During my internship at Tech Mahindra, I built real production systems — dynamic web applications, CI/CD pipelines with Docker and Jenkins, and optimized APIs that reduced system latency by 25%.
My academic projects push into AI/ML: a real-time log analytics system with ELK stack and Python Isolation Forest anomaly detection, and a GAN trained from scratch in PyTorch with 20% convergence improvement.
Looking for full-time software engineering roles starting May 2026 — where I can build scalable systems and grow alongside strong engineering teams.
Latency problems are almost always architectural, not algorithmic. Design data access patterns first; optimize code second.
The best way to learn a technology deeply is to build something real with it — not follow a tutorial, but solve an actual problem.
Code that reads like documentation is infinitely more valuable than clever one-liners. Future-you will be grateful.
A working system in production teaches you more in a week than a perfect design in a notebook teaches you in a month.

Interests & passions
What I think about when I'm not writing code.
Following F1 since Schumacher's era. The intersection of engineering precision, race strategy, and split-second decisions mirrors how I think about software architecture and system design.
The analytics revolution in basketball fascinates me as much as the game itself. Player efficiency metrics and shot-quality models feel a lot like profiling application performance.
More interests and details being added soon.
