About

Hi, I'm Priya — a Computer Science undergrad at the University of Minnesota with a passion for building reliable systems. I've interned at IDeaS Revenue Solutions and KEB America, and I currently work as a Teaching Assistant for Computational Linear Algebra.

My experience spans backend development (Python, Java, C, REST APIs), databases (SQL, MongoDB), and DevOps tools (Docker, AWS, GitHub Actions, testing frameworks). I enjoy designing systems that are not only functional but resilient, and I love documenting tradeoffs along the way.

This site is a living portfolio — I ship small improvements weekly.

Projects
