Hi, I'm Aryan 👋

19, building fast backends, scalable language models, and iOS apps. I live to learn, create, and ship. Experienced in full-stack development, machine learning, and data analysis.

About

I love to solve problems, learn intricate concepts, and build products. Solving daunting & ambiguous problems demand clarity under chaos, thus I believe in creating intuitive interfaces and scalable engineering to solve them from first principles. I'm currently a computer science and statistics senior at ASU, while researching safety in large-language models.

I grew up with a deep passion for mathematics, and use bayesian statistics to explain the world around me. I have won awards at collegiate hackathons such as HackMIT 2024 and SFHacks 2024. In my free time, I'm probably going down rabbit-holes or cycling till I run out of roads.

Hackathons

I like hacking things (a lot)

During my time in university, I attended 10+ hackathons. It was eye-opening to see the endless possibilities brought to life by a group of motivated and passionate individuals within 2-3 days. I have made some of my best friends and memories at these hackathons :)
