Hey, thanks for checking out my personal website! My name is Nivetha and I'm a second-year student studying software engineering at McMaster University. This is my first time applying my web development skills to a big project and I had a lot of fun making this. Feel free to learn more about me and look at some of my past projects.
With the goal of building a more inclusive digital environment, I'm interested in developing technologies that prioritize underrepresented people. I love to code and I'm always trying to learn new programming skills. My current goals are to expand my knowledge on data structures, learn backend development and find potential spring '22 internships. If you want to chat, don't hesitate to reach out!
