I’m a software engineer with a strong interest in backend engineering, systems, computer networks, and computer architecture. I enjoy understanding how software works beneath the surface—from how applications communicate and scale to how operating systems, networks, and hardware shape performance.
My experience so far has primarily been in backend and full-stack development, and I’m continuing to deepen my knowledge of distributed systems, networking, and low-level systems concepts. I’m especially drawn to engineering problems that involve performance, reliability, scalability, and designing well-structured systems.

Capstone Project
Explored whether gut microbiome composition could be used as a non-invasive indicator for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Analyzed high-dimensional microbiome data using Weka, applying feature selection, dimensionality reduction, and classification techniques to identify patterns that could distinguish HCC cases from control groups.
