Hi, I'm Ameya 👋

Computer Science @ Penn State • Physics minor • AI/ML & security enthusiast

🎓 B.S. in Computer Science with a minor in Physics at Penn State (Schreyer Honors, Class of 2028)
🔬 Undergraduate Research Assistant working on Monte Carlo simulations + AI models for probabilistic forecasting and statistical modeling
🛠 Part-time Application Specialist at Penn State OPP, maintaining and optimizing software for 10+ campus systems
🌐 Interested in ML, web application engineering, security, and data-driven problem solving

🧪 Integrating machine learning into simulation workflows to speed up large‑scale statistical experiments
🏗 Building internal tools to streamline facility management and reduce manual data entry for campus operations
🔐 Exploring web application security through hands-on vulnerability and mitigation studies
📚 Growing skills in production‑grade AI, scalable backends, and secure web systems

🔎 CanvAI – Semantic search for course content
- Built the core semantic search platform using FAISS and HuggingFace embeddings to retrieve Canvas content (notes, grades, assignments) with sub‑second latency across entire courses.
- Designed CSV processing + text extraction for multiple file types and a hybrid search engine with automatic course code detection and multi-layered caching.
🛡 Web Vulnerabilities Study – Practical security research
- 30‑day self-directed study of 7 common web vulnerabilities (XSS, CSRF, SQLi, IDOR, OAuth issues, open redirects, sensitive data exposure), documenting 25+ potential attack vectors.
- Implemented 30+ generalized defensive code examples in Rust, Python, PowerShell, PL/pgSQL and organized best‑practice modules used by 20+ peers.
