I'm a full-stack developer specializing in the MERN stack, with a strong foundation in DSA and a genuine love for UI/UX. I build responsive, scalable web applications with clean APIs and thoughtful design.

Currently pursuing my B.E. in Computer Science & Design at K.K. Wagh Institute of Engineering, Nashik (CGPA: 8.50), while actively working as a UI/UX Design Intern at APR Hub Technologies.

I'm efficient with AI tools and LLMs — I don't just build apps, I augment them with intelligence. From integrating OpenAI APIs to deploying on Oracle Cloud, I work across the full stack.
