About

With a robust foundation in computer science, I am currently pursuing a Master's degree at the University of Southern California, specializing in robotics and full-stack development. My academic journey began with a Bachelor's in Computer Science and Engineering from Vasavi College of Engineering. At USC, I have engaged in cutting-edge research projects, including AI-driven player mapping in badminton and 3D ocean ground mapping for climate change predictions. My professional experience includes a significant tenure at Qualcomm, where I excelled as an Information Technology Engineer. There, I optimized data transfer systems, automated deployments, and managed server configurations using Python and DevOps tools. I also contributed as a Software Engineer Intern, developing a real-time monitoring system for Qualcomm's infrastructure. My expertise spans Python development, system administration, and automation, underpinned by a strong commitment to innovation and efficiency.
