About / 02
I'm Alisha, a Computer Science student and software engineer interested in the complete journey of a product— from what users interact with to the systems, data, and infrastructure running underneath it.
Next.js · React · TypeScript
Interfaces that are usable, responsive, and connected to real application logic.
Node.js · Express · REST APIs
Backend services, API design, authentication, and application workflows.
PostgreSQL · MongoDB
Schemas, relationships, queries, and the data layer behind the product.
Docker · AWS · Linux
Taking software beyond localhost through containers, cloud, and deployment.

Professional Experience
My journey isn't limited to coursework. Through internships, I learned how software is built in real teams, how products evolve, and how leadership matters just as much as technical skills.
Learning Platform
Full-Stack Developer Intern
Worked at Emple, an early-stage learning platform, contributing to both frontend and backend development while experiencing the pace and challenges of a startup environment.
Built the Quiz Management System.
Developed the Test Management System.
Worked on both Next.js frontend and Express.js backend.
Integrated REST APIs with frontend modules.
Fixed bugs and improved existing features.
Collaborated in a fast-moving startup environment.
Learnt how to deploy the backend with ECR and ECS and frontend with AWS Amplify
NGO
Social Internship • Team Leader
Represented my college as the Team Leader during a social internship, coordinating the student team while contributing to documentation and operational activities.
Led the college team throughout the internship.
Managed documentation and reporting.
Maintained project records using Excel.
Coordinated communication between the NGO and student volunteers.
Strengthened leadership and organizational skills.
Tech Stack
Selected Projects
Each project helped me understand something deeper, from backend structure and databases to dashboards, user flows, and solving practical student problems.
Next.js · Node.js · Express · MongoDB
A publishing platform with separate user and admin experiences for creating, managing, and reading blogs.
Problem
Most blog projects stop at basic CRUD and do not focus enough on dashboard flow or admin/user separation.
Solution
Built separate interfaces, REST API integration, blog management, and rich text editing.
Outcome
Improved my understanding of full-stack architecture, database modeling, and admin dashboards.
React · Node.js · APIs · Database
An affiliate-style product platform focused on structured product, category, and admin management.
Problem
Affiliate systems need more than product cards, they need clean organization and backend-driven workflows.
Solution
Created product management, category organization, admin dashboard, and backend connectivity.
Outcome
Strengthened my dashboard UI, backend integration, and database-driven product flow skills.
Java Swing · Algorithms · Study Planning
A desktop app that helps students plan placement preparation using adaptive priority scoring.
Problem
Students often prepare for placements without a clear priority-based study strategy.
Solution
Built a Java Swing app that creates adaptive study plans using priority scoring.
Outcome
Applied algorithmic thinking to a real student productivity and placement preparation problem.
Currently
Let's Work Together
I'm currently looking for internship opportunities, exciting projects, and environments where I can learn from experienced engineers while contributing to meaningful products.
