About me
Roha Pathan
I'm Roha (pronounce: Row-HA!). I'm a software engineer. When I'm not coding or learning, I like to lose in chess and basically every other competitive zero-sum game ever, watch an unhealthy amount of anime, and try to get myself to read more books
The short version
How it started
I first got hooked on programming through CS50, C, Python, and AI. It gave me the first real sense that code could turn curiosity into something usable.
University
I am studying Software Engineering, keeping a steady pace through the degree while building projects outside class and learning by making things.
Hackathons
I joined a bunch of hackathons across AI, healthcare, low-code tools, identity, and product prototypes. They were useful pressure cookers for shipping quickly.
Freelance work
I have worked on small client projects, websites, curriculum development, and programming tutoring.
Current focus
Right now I am leaning deeper into AI engineering and deep learning, including transformer architectures and building an LLM from scratch.
