About Me
I'm a software engineer focused on Applied AI and full-stack development, interested in building software systems that solve real-world problems. I enjoy turning AI models into real, usable products and bridging the gap between research and practical applications.
My experience includes AI research on indoor navigation for visually impaired users and building interactive systems that teach sustainable farming through aquaponics.
I'm curious, detail-oriented, and driven by impact. I value a growth mindset and am always looking to learn, improve, and explore new technologies.
