About Me

Hello! I'm an university student and software engineer learning about web development, data science, robotics, cloud computing, and recently quantum computing.

When I'm not coding, you can find me bouldering, playing badminton, destroying my friends at word based games, and reading about mythology in specific.

PerLoan

PerLoan

PerLoan is a revolutionary peer-to-peer lending service which allows people to request loans from others at a lower interest rate than traditional banks and credit cards, decreasing the burden on them, while also providing lenders with a way to grow their savings. People can either loan money to others via campaigns, or they can start their own campaign! This is linked with your credit score so these loans can be used to increase your credit score. We are also using PropelAuth to minimize account fraud and implementing a unique approach through our Artificial Intelligence model to minimize loan fraud, revolutionizing the loan industry.
