I build software
for intelligent systems.

Hi! I'm Lakshmi, an Honors Computer Science and Engineering student at The Ohio State University, with minors in Psychology and Statistics. I'm interested in AI/ML and enjoy building data-driven systems that turn complex problems into practical solutions for people.
