Who I am

About me

I'm an Electronics & Computer Science engineering student at Vidyalankar Institute of Technology who builds across full-stack web, applied machine learning, and conversational AI.

What I build

Most recently I built House Muse, an AI interior design platform that redesigns a room from a single photo, and shipped a lead-handling chatbot on Zoho SalesIQ during my internship at Trinetrini Quantum. I'm comfortable with Python, JavaScript, SQL, REST APIs, computer vision, and Linux and cloud fundamentals.
