Developer, Designer & Analyst

Although I am a 4th year computer science student, I have experience with multitude of jobs and I am passionate about making an impact through my work. I have interned as a Software Engineer and as a Site Reliability Engineer at Salesforce (Tableau) and Major League Hacking Inc respectively. I have held several part-time jobs at my university like IT and Multimedia Assistant, Graphic Design Assistant, Computing Support Assistant and and my personal endeavours include usertesting, researching about interesting stuff like stocks, web3 & crypto and financial freedom. I had also created a side clothing merchandise business for the engineering department at my university, where I did everything from designing the merch, creating the website and selling it. I am someone who's held several leadership positions in the campus clubs as well. I have served as the VP of student government where I chaired and advertised weekly networking events with +300 participants and invited speakers from companies like Tesla, Apple, Citi Bank and Pinterest. I also managed the internal affairs (event dates, meetings, office hours, public document availability, council discipline, lead structural developments (levy), internal and external committees) of the organization. Currently, I am completely my last year of undergrad and will be starting my full-time software engineering career from Fall 2023. Meanwhile, I am looking for more roles where I can help people with the skills I have acquired and gain more skills and connections! I look forward to working with y'all!
