I'm an enthusiastic Software Engineering student, aspiring Data Engineer, and experienced Mathematics Tutor with a unique interdisciplinary background that bridges technology, social science, and creativity. I'm passionate about learning new technologies, solving complex problems, and building solutions that create meaningful impact.

Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science at the University of Florida, I have hands-on experience with software engineering practices, data structures, programming fundamentals, and VR Development in Unity3D. My strong foundation in problem-solving and communication helps me approach every project with a focus on collaboration and continuous learning.

• Software Engineering: Gaining experience in using Jaeger to trace microservice architecture performance for web applications.
• Data Engineering: Learning how to design and optimize data pipelines and work with large datasets.
• Data Science Fundamentals: Exploring projects involving Apache Spark and Amazon Web Services.
• Mathematics: Over 7 years of tutoring experience across a wide range of mathematical subjects, empowering students to build confidence and mastery.

• Data Engineering and Software Projects: Building data pipelines and small-scale software solutions as part of coursework and personal projects.
• Exploring Data Science: Learning about machine learning techniques, data visualization, and working on projects that help me understand the practical applications of data science.
• Mathematics Tutoring: Continuously helping students improve their mathematical skills, from high school algebra to discrete mathematics and linear algebra.

Tech Stack: Python, Scikit-learn, Pandas, R

• Evaluated and compared the performance of multiple machine learning models (Neural Networks, SVM, Random Forest, KNN) using metrics such as accuracy, precision, and recall.
• Led dataset selection and conducted hyperparameter tuning for optimizing model performance.
• Worked with data preprocessing, transformation, and statistical analysis.

Tech Stack: JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Node.js, SQL

• Participated in a remote group project to develop a full-stack web application, utilizing Node.js.
• Followed SCRUM and AGILE methodology with two week sprints, daily stand-ups, and backlogs using remote collaboration tools like Figma Jam, Zoom, and Jira to deliver features on time.
• Practiced DevOps with continuous integration and deployment pipelines using GitHub Actions.
• Designed and implemented database functionality using SQL for efficient data management and retrieval.

Tech Stack: JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Data Structures

• Built a browser-based tool to visualize common sorting algorithms like quicksort, mergesort, and heapsort.
• This project strengthened my understanding of algorithmic efficiency and front-end development.

• Python, Java, SQL, JavaScript, C++

• Data Structures, Pandas, NumPy, Basic Machine Learning (Scikit-learn), R
• Exploring: Spark, Hadoop, ETL Pipelines

• Software Development Fundamentals, Version Control (Git)
• Agile & DevOps practices (SCRUM, CI/CD)
• Full-Stack Development (JavaScript, Node.js, SQL)
• Basic understanding of REST APIs, Docker, Unix

• Jupyter, R Studio, AWS (EC2, S3), GCP, Adobe Premiere Pro

With over 7 years of tutoring experience, I specialize in helping students master mathematics concepts across levels. I focus on building student confidence and teaching effective problem-solving strategies in subjects like:

• Algebra, Calculus (AB & BC), Linear Algebra, Multivariable Calculus, Discrete Mathematics

• Machine Learning & Data Science: Continuing to develop my skills in data analysis, predictive modeling, and AI through projects and coursework.
• Software Engineering: Building more advanced software systems, contributing to open-source projects, and improving my understanding of best practices in software development.
• Media & Technology: Combining my passion for digital media and storytelling with my growing technical skills to create impactful experiences.

I'm actively seeking internships and part-time roles in software engineering, data science, and data engineering. I'm eager to continue learning, collaborating, and contributing to meaningful projects in these fields!
