Hi, I’m Humza. I’m a self-driven Computer Science student at Purdue University, dual majoring in Artificial Intelligence and minoring in Mathematics. I’m on track to graduate early in May 2027.

I’m passionate about utilizing AI to create innovative and practical solutions that improve everyday life.
I currently work at Huddle Social, where I recently helped ship an OCR-powered Schedule Rater with RESTful APIs and Firebase trend analysis to over 750 users. I also earned Best Presentation & Pitch for PlateMate, an AI meal-recommendation project.

Beyond tech, I serve as Director of Communications in Purdue Student Government, leading West Lafayette ↔ Indianapolis campus coordination—connecting 2,500+ students to university resources and co-running joint events.

I’m always looking for promising opportunities and am happy to meet new people!
