About

With a Master's degree in Computer Science from Texas A&M University and a Bachelor's in Technology from Bharati Vidyapeeth's College of Engineering, I have honed my skills in software engineering and leadership. Currently serving as a Software Engineering Team Lead at Accenture, I mentor a team in developing enterprise applications, focusing on performance optimization and best coding practices. My previous roles include Senior Software Engineer and Co-Op at Accenture, where I developed web-based interfaces and container management APIs. As an AI Student Ambassador for Intel, I promoted AI technologies and supported related projects. My experience as a Graduate Assistant at Texas A&M involved developing a 3-tiered MVVM web application in an Agile environment. I am proficient in .NET Core, Docker, and PowerBI, with a strong focus on cross-functional collaboration and continuous improvement.
