🧐 About Me
Get to Know Me!!


I'm Yash, a full-time caffeine addict ☕️ and part-time software developer. I'm currently in my senior year studying Computer Science at UC Davis 🐄.
I'm passionate about building web apps and have experience working with the MERN stack, Git, and more. How, you ask? Through intense late-night coding sessions fueled by coffee and personal projects 💻 beyond just my coursework. I am even working on AI/ML research ith Professor Rafatirad.
When I manage to peel myself away from my computer, you can find me wielding a badminton racket 🏸, biking 🚲 around Davis, listening to business 💰 and finance podcasts, or attempting fancy cardistry card tricks (it's been while since I've practiced though).
I'm currently on the hunt for full-time SWE roles 👨💻 where I can expand my skills and build meaningful products. I'm open to joining startups to help drive innovation and change in my first role after graduation.
Feel free to check out some of my past projects 👇 or feel free to connect via my contact page 💬. I'm always down for a good conversation over coffee or to get any career advice!
