Computer Science engineer building robust, secure systems.

I'm a Computer Science Engineering student with a deep interest in backend architecture and distributed systems. I enjoy designing APIs, building microservices, and working with cloud-native technologies to solve real-world problems at scale.

Beyond backend development, I'm passionate about cybersecurity — from OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities to malware analysis and secure system design. I also explore the intersection of AI and modern software systems, applying machine learning to build smarter applications.

Competitive programming sharpens my problem-solving skills — I actively participate on platforms like LeetCode and Codeforces, and I believe strong algorithmic thinking is the foundation of great engineering.
