Open to Summer 2026 internships

Hi, I'm Yashmit.

Data Science student @ UC San Diego — building ML systems & products people actually use.

I turn data into things that ship: from 95%-accuracy precision-ag models to live web apps like GradeHQ and Cut. I love the spot where machine learning meets clean, fast product design.

About me

I'm a Data Science student who likes shipping, not just analyzing.

At UC San Diego I focus on machine learning and data visualization, but my favorite work happens when a model leaves the notebook and becomes something real — a mobile app, a research paper, a live website. I've taken projects from raw data all the way to the App Store and production web.

That path runs from precision-agriculture research hitting 95% accuracy, to a personal-finance app for fellow Tritons, to an AR gesture-recognition system with sub-100ms latency. Outside of code, I'm an Eagle Scout who led a robotics team to the world championship and ran two student clubs.
