I'm a passionate software developer and aspiring data scientist pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science at Rutgers University, with an expected graduation date of May 2025. I specialize in building RESTful APIs, solving complex problems with data-driven insights, and am actively seeking new graduate roles in software engineering or data science.
