About Me

I'm a Software Engineering student who loves building thoughtful tools, the kind that merge backend architecture with clean, purposeful design. From automating workflows to crafting data-rich interfaces, I get excited about turning abstract problems into well-engineered, user-friendly solutions.

This site is a curated window into the projects I’ve built, the technologies I enjoy working with, and the challenges I’ve tackled along the way. If something sparks your interest, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
