About
I’m a computer engineering undergraduate at DJ Sanghvi College of Engineering, Mumbai University, focused on software engineering grounded in first principles, backend systems, FastAPI, Docker, and practical machine learning systems that can be deployed in real-world settings.
Through collaborations with IIT Patna and IIT Mandi, I’ve built hands-on experience in explainable medical AI, multimodal learning, and geometric deep learning for engineering systems, while strengthening my software engineering and CS fundamentals. I also practice competitive programming and have solved more than 400 problems across Codeforces and LeetCode.
