About Me

Hello there! I'm Advait Kushe, a passionate computer science enthusiast with a love for building things, both in the virtual and physical realms. As a child, I was captivated by the process of constructing intricate structures using Lego bricks, which sparked my curiosity and ignited a deep interest in problem-solving and innovation. Now, armed with a solid background in computer science, I am determined to use my skills to bring positive change and tackle real-world challenges within my own community.

Computer science, for me, is not just a field of study or a career choice; it's a way of thinking and a powerful tool to make a meaningful impact. The world of code and algorithms is like an endless playground, where creativity knows no bounds. Just like building with Lego bricks, I enjoy piecing together lines of code to create elegant solutions to complex problems.

One of the most rewarding aspects of computer science is its versatility. From developing software applications and websites to working on artificial intelligence and machine learning projects, I am constantly challenged and excited by the opportunities to innovate and improve the lives of others through technology.

My Work

FindMyHospital

Crude predictive modeling tool to predict likelihood of receiving a hospital bed in over 5,000 hospitals throughout the United States

MicroOcaml

Developed a lexer, parser, and interpreter using OCaml called MicroOcaml

Order Processor

A Java application that can process large files that represent customer orders, each file lists the items bought and the date of purchase along with a client ID which is unique to each file. The program then generates a summary for each order containing the client id, item bought, date of purchase and total cost.
