About Me

I’m a passionate Computer Science and Business student. I enjoy building fun and useful systems, automating tasks that I dread doing in my daily life, and exploring software customization in my free time. I love to tinker and mess around with technology as a whole, as it drives my passion.

In addition to my studies, I actively seek out opportunities to apply my skills in real-world projects and collaborations. If you have any interesting projects or ideas, feel free to reach out!
