About Me

Who Am I?

As a Software Engineering Grad Student at the University of Maryland, College Park, I'm deeply passionate about problem-solving and coding. My journey has equipped me with a diverse skill set encompassing Python, Django, Java, Spring Boot, HTML5, and CSS, among others.With over 2 years of experience in Software Development, I delved into technologies like Java and Spring Boot, solidifying my expertise in these areas. Through engaging projects like developing full-stack websites and predictive ML models, I've not only honed my technical abilities but also cultivated a keen eye for addressing real-world challenges. Now, I'm eager to leverage my skills and experiences in a dynamic role that fosters professional development and allows me to create impactful solutions. Additionally, I enjoy exploring new hobbies, watching movies, cooking and spending some quiet time in nature.
