Biography
I’m a highly motivated high school student with a strong foundation in software engineering seeking an internship to apply and further develop skills in computer science or AI. I’ve built numerous self-directed projects including MathGPT, a Discord application that combines CAS and LLMs to enhance both. I have strong teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and analytical skills.
