Building what I like · Open to SWE internships · Ready to Freelance

I’m a CS undergraduate who enjoys writing clear, efficient, and maintainable code while understanding the engineering decisions behind it. I’m particularly interested in the “why” behind systems—how they are designed, scaled, and made reliable in production.

I’m progressively building projects that take me deeper into backend engineering, distributed systems, and production-grade software. Currently, I’m open to internship opportunities where I can contribute to real-world systems, learn from experienced engineers, and grow.
