I’m a Computer Science B.S./M.S. student at UC Riverside (graduating in December 2026), interested in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, AI Agents, Generative AI, building thoughtful software, and engineering for good.

I'm actively seeking AI/ML internships for Summer and Fall 2026, so please feel free to reach out with any opportunities or advice! If my profile is a good fit, I would be grateful to get in touch and have a conversation about how I can grow with you soon.

My work touches upon the intersection of AI, thoughtful software design + engineering, and accessibility; I particularly love turning my ideas into fun and impactful projects to benefit others. I'm an AI Trainer with Handshake AI and an AI product tester with DeepLearning.AI, where I focus on improving AI education through thoughtful course design and project experiences. I also spend my weekends teaching as an Islamic Studies Instructor at Institute of Knowledge (IOK), where I love cultivating a supportive and growth-driven learning environment for my students around Islam and what it means to live a peaceful life as a Muslim.

Here are a few AI courses I've directly contributed to and helped launch with DeepLearning.AI:

1. Multi-AI Agent Systems with crewAI
2. Long-Term Agentic Memory with LangGraph
3. Semantic Caching for AI Agents with Redis
4. Jupyter-AI Coding in Notebooks

• Aspiring AI/ML Engineer: I focus on building and learning with AI & ML (LLMs, Gen. AI, Multimodal AI, DL, RL, AI agents, etc.)
• Software Engineer: I enjoy building full-stack apps, intelligent tools, and friendly user experiences.
• Engineering for Good: My goal is to create projects that are technically impressive while being helpful and accessible to others.
• Beyond Code: I’m obsessed with boba, reading, skating, building LEGO, going for coffee runs, and gaming, which keep me curious and inspired.

• Snaption
  Explored multi-modal ML and built an end-to-end image captioning system with PyTorch to generate natural language descriptions of images. Trained on Flickr8k (8K images), tackling hyperparameter tuning, overfitting prevention, and data augmentation strategies.

• Text2SQL LLaMA Analyst
  Fine-tuned LLaMA-2-7B to translate natural language descriptions into structured, SQL queries using parameter-efficient fine-tuning techniques: LoRA + 4-bit quantization.
  Includes a zero-setup Colab Demo

• GPT From Scratch
  Implemented multi-head self-attention, transformer blocks, and autoregressive decoding entirely from scratch in PyTorch to truly understand how GPT models work.
  Test it out yourself here.

• Pixelate
  Developed a colorblind-friendly pixel-art editor with an AI assistant (Pixi), real-time colorblind-friendly filters, and an accessible, intuitive interface for artists.

• Reddit Crawler
  Engineered a robust Reddit crawler and search engine that scraped, cleaned, and enriched 500MB+ of real-time subreddit data with multi-threading support, improving crawl throughput by 4× via parallelization.
