about me

Who Am I?

Code by day, curiosity round the clock — I ship things that actually work, not just things that compile. I like taking an idea from a blank folder all the way to a live link people can actually use, and I'm always chasing the next stack, framework, or trick that makes that faster.

Hey! I'm Nagaraj, a passionate Computer Science student who loves turning ideas into reality through code. I enjoy building projects, learning new technologies, and solving complex problems with elegant solutions.

When I'm not coding, I'm exploring new tech, contributing to projects, and continuously leveling up my skills to become a better developer every day.

what i know

My Skills

My toolkit for turning "what if" into "it's live" — frontend polish, backend logic, and everything that connects them. From writing clean React components to designing schemas and wiring up APIs, these are the tools I reach for on almost every build. I'm currently stretching that toolkit further into AI and machine learning fundamentals.

where i studied

Education

Two degrees, one habit — finishing at the top of the class instead of just getting through it. From BCA to MCA, I've kept my CGPA above 9.1 while balancing coursework with real project builds and an internship, because I've always believed grades and hands-on skill should grow together, not compete.

CURRENT

2026 — 2027

Master of Computer Application (MCA)

Deepening the fundamentals while shipping full-stack, AI-powered projects on the side

Dayananda Sagar Academy Of Technology And Management, Bengaluru

Pursuing MCA with focus on software development, data structures, algorithms, and emerging technologies — while actively building and deploying real-world applications like CampusVoice AI alongside coursework.

CGPA: 9.2 / 10

2022 — 2025

Bachelor of Computer Application (BCA)

Where it all started — first lines of code to a department topper

Basaveshwara Science College, Bagalkote — Rani Channamma University

Built a strong foundation in programming, databases, and web development, graduating as the top-ranked student in the department across all six semesters.

CGPA: 9.16 / 10

what i've built

Projects

Real problems, real users, real deployments — not tutorial clones. Each one below was built from a blank repo to a live URL, covering frontend, backend, database design, and everything in between. I care as much about the deployment pipeline as I do about the UI.

Live Project AI College Complaint Redressal System

PROJECT 01

AI College Complaint Redressal System

AI reads the complaint and routes it — no human dispatcher needed

Students raise complaints and AI automatically assigns the task to the concerned staff — auto-generating category and priority, sending email notifications, and running sentiment analysis on feedback. Includes three dedicated portals for Students, Staff, and Admins, plus PDF report generation and a staff performance leaderboard.

PROJECT 02

AI-Powered Data Visualization Dashboard

Drop a CSV in, walk away with charts that actually make sense

Accepts large CSV dataset uploads, automatically parses and cleans the data, and uses AI to recommend the most suitable chart types — with interactive charts generated dynamically, an AI chat endpoint with voice input, and auto-generated data insights.

MERN STACK

MERN Stack Certification

Full-stack development using MongoDB, Express, React, and Node.js.

INFOSYS SPRINGBOARD

Java

Core Java programming, OOP concepts, and problem solving.

PARTICIPATION CERTIFICATE

Coding Challenge

Participated in a competitive coding event.

AWS

AWS Fundamentals

Core cloud computing concepts and AWS services.

ORACLE

Java Learning Explorer

Completed Oracle's Java learning path, covering core language fundamentals and object-oriented programming concepts.

Achievements

The scoreboard behind the code — top ranks and recognitions earned the slow way, one semester at a time. These aren't one-off wins; they're the result of showing up consistently across both my BCA and MCA, semester after semester. From topping my undergraduate batch to carrying that same form into my Master's, each milestone here reflects real, sustained effort rather than a single lucky exam.

🏆 BCA Topper — CGPA 9.16

Ranked 1st in BCA All Semesters (2024–25) at Basaveshwar Science College, Bagalkote — the highest CGPA in the department that year, out of every student across all three years.

🎓 Felicitated with Cash Prize for Academic Excellence

Honoured on stage with a certificate and cash prize for topping BCA, presented at the college's official "Shubh Kadam" farewell function in front of faculty, family, and the outgoing batch.

📈 MCA Class Topper — SGPA 9.15

Recognized among the top scorers in MCA I Semester, Autonomous Batch 2025–2027, at Dayananda Sagar Academy of Technology and Management — carrying the same consistency from BCA straight into my Master's.
