My interest in becoming a developer in the field of software engineering and computer science has always been strong. I would love working with individuals from all backgrounds in various fields so that we could collaborate and learn from one another. At the moment, I work as a graduate teaching assistant for the Computer Science Department's course CS 306. Additionally, I have had the opportunity to work as an intern for Quality Theorem. During the internship, I was entrusted with organizing a team to design an exam portal with functions that would allow students to take exams, turn in assignments, monitor their scores, and much more. I've gained a lot of knowledge in the fields of development and management through these numerous work experiences.My current research interests are in the areas of software engineering, artificial intelligence, and web development.
