I am a student in UC Davis's class of 2027, pursuing a major in Computer Science and have a intention of doing minor in Accounting. I have been studying computer science since my sophomore year in high school, and am comfortable coding in Java, Python, C++, HTML, CSS, Javascript, React, and SQL. When I'm not in classes, I'm often doing research or AI software development as part of the Machine Learning Student Network. I've also done software engineering, machine learning internships with Ernst & Young and currently a CS instructor with CS tutoring at UC Davis since April 2025.

I'm also involved in a variety of extracurriculars on campus, including Girls Who Code, Machine Learning Student Network and CS Tutoring at UC Davis. In the rare moments I'm free, I also enjoy painting, classical Dance, Badminton, pottery and exploring new places!

Projects

Quiz Application Master

This program serves as an interface layer for a quiz application that supports multiple GUI frameworks; based on user input, it launches the selected GUI (Tkinter, PyQt, wxPython, or PyGTK) to run the same quiz logic across different platforms.

To Do list

This program provides a graphical interface for a to-do list using Tkinter, allowing users to add, delete, and mark tasks as completed through interactive windows and buttons.

Password Generator

This program generates secure, randomized passwords by combining lowercase letters, numbers, and uppercase letters, offering customizable password lengths through a simple Python script.


Personal Website

I built this website by combining two existing HTML/CSS & Javascript templates and modifying the result to fit my needs.

Alzheimer Disease Research

As part of my First Year Seminar, I conducted research on Alzheimer’s disease using AlphaFold2 and deep learning to predict protein structures, visualize genomic data, and apply AI in biomedical science.

My Extracurriculars

Kathak Classical Dance


I’ve been learning Kathak, a beautiful form of Indian classical dance, for several years and completed my diploma in it. Kathak has taught me more than just rhythm and technique—it’s helped me connect with my culture, express emotions through movement, and tell stories without words. Performing on stage has always been a special experience for me, and this journey has shaped my confidence, discipline, and love for the arts in a big way.





Machine Learning Student Network

I’m a developer at the Machine Learning Student Network, where I explore the exciting world of AI by building real-world projects using machine learning. From experimenting with models to solving meaningful problems, I enjoy turning data into insights and ideas into working solutions. Being part of this community has helped me grow my technical skills, collaborate with like-minded peers, and stay curious about the endless possibilities of machine learning.

UC Davis Indian Student Association

I’m a proud member of the UC Davis Indian Student Association, a vibrant community that celebrates Indian culture, traditions, and festivals on campus. Being part of ISA has given me the chance to connect with fellow students, participate in cultural events, and share the joy of our heritage with the wider UC Davis community. It’s been a meaningful way to stay rooted in my culture while building friendships and memories that go beyond the classroom.





Girls Who Code

As a Technical Development Intern at Girls Who Code, I had the opportunity to support and empower young women in tech by creating resources, developing training materials, and leading technical workshops. I contributed to coding projects and helped organize events that made computer science more accessible and engaging for students. This experience not only strengthened my technical and communication skills but also deepened my passion for promoting diversity and inclusion in the tech community.
