ME

Hello you found my goals

My goal is to keep growing as a computer scientist by seeking out new experiences, embracing diverse perspectives, and applying them to innovative problem-solving. Through travel and exploration, I aim to broaden my understanding of the world and integrate those insights into my academic and professional work. I am particularly interested in artificial intelligence and its applications in areas such as cybersecurity and healthcare. By staying curious, adaptable, and committed to lifelong learning, I aspire to make meaningful contributions that connect computer science with real-world impact.

Hello This is About ME

I'm a Computer Science major at the University of South Florida with a passion for exploring new ideas and turning them into creative projects. Outside of coding, I enjoy composing music and discovering new foods. I'm especially interested in learning more about areas like artificial intelligence, network security, computer networks, privacy-focused infrastructures, and database design fields I find both challenging and exciting.
