About

I'm a second-year Computer Science student at Chennai Institute of Technology, driven by a genuine curiosity for how things are built and how they can be built better.

I enjoy working across the stack — from writing clean Python scripts to building web interfaces and digging into backend logic. I care about writing code that is readable, purposeful, and solves a real problem.

Right now I'm focused on open-source contribution, backend development, and cybersecurity — areas I find equally exciting. Outside code, I value leadership and cross-disciplinary collaboration.

I'm actively looking for internship opportunities, open-source projects, and collaborations where I can contribute and grow.
