Waddle Away

A small 2D endless runner built with Godot. It was a good exercise in pacing, player feedback and game feel, all wrapped into a polished and playful experience that keeps players coming back.

About Me

I'm a second-year AI student who likes building complete, practical software instead of stopping at prototypes. I enjoy the point where systems engineering, applied ML and product thinking overlap.

Right now I'm leaning into Python and C++ for the technical depth, while improving how I design, package and present projects. I want to keep getting better at writing software that is clear, maintainable and actually pleasant to use.

I'm especially interested in ML for bioinformatics and animal welfare. The problems I want to work on sit at the edge of research and engineering: data pipelines, evaluation, small deployable demos and tools that can be trusted by real users.
