Interests and Hobbies
Algorithmic Programming
C++, Python

I enjoy algorithmic challenges and competitive programming.

I have previously been quite active on Kattis but am looking to do more Code Forces contests nowadays.

Scientific Programming
Python 3

With Python, I was able to perform simulations and train neural networks to perform different takes.

Here's a time I tried to do image classification of different stair cases. (It takes a bit of time to load)

Full Stack Development
HTML, CSS, JS, SQL

I have some experience with web development, particuarly working on my own side projects. I have experimented with both traditional server/client setups and serverless setups.

A collborative TODO List I made which used various Firebase services.

Climbing

I currently am quite interested in bouldering. However, I have done some amount of sport and lead climbing in the past, both indoors and outdoors.
