About Me
Engineering with Vision, Discipline, and Impact
I am a Computer Engineering student who treats every project as a real product challenge. I do not just write code for assignments; I architect solutions, evaluate tradeoffs, and iterate until the result is polished. My approach blends technical depth with product thinking: identify the core problem, build the fastest reliable solution, and keep improving with measurable outcomes.
I actively work across different stacks, from low-level and backend systems to modern web interfaces and AI simulations. This range helps me connect big-picture strategy with implementation details, which is the skill set I bring to teams and future internships.
