I’m a Computer Science student who lives and breathes backend systems.
I enjoy building things that run fast, scale cleanly, and integrate seamlessly with hardware.
My focus is on understanding every layer — from how bits move in memory to how distributed services communicate across the cloud.
I’m currently building, learning, and refining — one project at a time.

To become an engineer who deeply understands how software, hardware, and cloud infrastructure work together.
Backend first, systems always in mind — and a strong bias for building things that actually run.
Backend in the mind. Systems in the heart. Infra in the hands. Robotics on the side. Consistency everywhere.
