Work milestones

Institute for Plasma Research
Sep 2023 - Nov 2023 Project Intern

I worked on a Raspberry Pi project where I created a secured access point using a small raspberry system that can work as a personal VPN or a Personal Router in any environment.

Guvi Code Camp, SRM
2021 - 2024 Associate Technical Lead

As the lead of the club’s machine learning technical team, I co-introduced the cybersecurity domain with a board member, expanding our focus and fostering interdisciplinary growth. Under my leadership, we completed the "EngineerTube" project and created a bot to maintain and manage the club’s Discord server effectively.

I also contributed to the club’s activities by hosting the "Da Vinci Code" coding event at GCC, which encouraged creativity and problem-solving among participants. My dedication to continuous learning and technical excellence was further demonstrated by achieving second place in a club hackathon.
