Welcome! 👋

My name is Dhruv Patel, and I'm a student at Harvard College. I'm interested in full-stack app and web development, with experience in back-end bioinformatics as an intern at the Lubbe Lab at Northwestern and front-end design creating MapAbility. Here, you'll find some of my past projects, including class work, personal projects, and lab work. You can contact me at [email protected] or on my LinkedIn with any questions or ideas — I'd love to help out!
