About Me 👨‍💻

Hello! I'm Gowtham, a B.Tech student specializing in Artificial Intelligence & Data Science at Velalar College of Engineering and Technology. I'm deeply fascinated by the intersection of technology and real-world problem-solving, with a particular interest in AI, machine learning, and computer vision. My goal is to build intelligent systems that make a tangible impact.

I enjoy programming and exploring various tech stacks, from developing AI models and deploying them as APIs to building interactive full-stack web applications. I believe in continuous learning and applying theoretical knowledge through hands-on projects and internships.
