About Me
I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Delaware with a deep passion for Machine Learning and AI. Currently conducting research on Diffusion Models, specifically working with RFDiffusion for protein structure generation. With hands-on experience in both ML systems and backend development, I'm seeking Backend Engineer and Machine Learning Engineering internship opportunities where I can apply my experience in building AI driven applications and gain more experience with the latest ML technologies.
