Computer Science and Business Systems undergraduate, building at the intersection of software, AI, and product — one hackathon and one shipped idea at a time.

About

I believe in learning by building — turning ideas into working software rather than letting them stay theory.

I'm passionate about software development, artificial intelligence, data science, fintech, and product innovation — and I approach all of it with an entrepreneurial lens.

Hackathons are where I test that instinct. I actively participate in them, using the pressure of a deadline to ship real, working ideas rather than polished slideware.

Outside of building, I'm continuously sharpening both my technical and professional skills, and I document that journey openly on LinkedIn — the wins, the projects, and everything in between.
