About:

Hi!, I am an undergrad in UC Berkeley, majoring in Computer Science, expecting to graduate in 2026. Here is my resume.

Coursework and Skills:

Throughout my academic journey, I've delved into diverse realms of computer science and mathematics. Beginning with CS61A, an introductory coding class, I gained foundational knowledge in object-oriented programming and even delved into creating a Scheme interpreter. Moving forward, in CS61B, a data structures course, I undertook projects involving the implementation of a web server and a word file parser. Over summers, I immersed myself in mathematical studies, tackling courses like Linear Algebra and Multivariable Calculus, while simultaneously honing my programming skills by developing a Python Reddit bot to interface with APIs and libraries. Further enriching my understanding, I engaged in a Discrete Math and Probability course, where I explored Graph Theory and Probability Theory, while also serving as an academic teaching assistant for data structures. Presently, I'm engaged in advanced research work and taking an intensive algorithmic class, delving into concepts like Dynamic Programming and NP Completeness. In parallel, I'm expanding my technical repertoire by mastering frameworks, languages, and software tools such as Linux, Docker, HTML, CSS, and AWS.

Achievements:

• During my second year, I worked under a PHD Candidate in a Computer Security Lab, devloping SDKs for mobile apps and mobile app developers.
• Spring 2024, I worked as an academic teaching assistant for CS61B, an advanced data structures class. I worked on planning course material, writing tests, and leading lectures.
• During Summer 2024, I worked as a software engineering intern for Redapt Inc. For this internship, I created a RAG Tool using Azure ML Studio and Web Scraping Bot using Beautiful Soup and Pytorch.

Strengths:

• An easy going person but very persistent when it comes to achieving goals.
• Works well on a team but can also lead.
• Motivated to learn and share knowledge with others.
• Great with time management.

Goals:

• To gain experience in various fields of Computer Science.
• To contribute to open source wherever possible.

Volunteering and Hobbies:

• Have played guitar for over 10 years.
• Volunteer and Leadership lead at UC Berkeley's Habitat for Humanity Club.
