Hi! I’m Afifah — a rising Senior majoring in Computer Science at UC Davis, and an aspiring AI developer passionate about ethical technology, lifelong learning, and building impactful solutions. I love combining creativity with logic to bring ideas to life.
Right now, I’m deepening my skills in data science and hands-on machine learning. I’m actively seeking internship opportunities where I can apply what I’ve learned, take on real-world challenges, and grow alongside experienced professionals—if you know of any, I’d love to connect!
