HI THERE, I'M AUNIK

About Me

I'm a junior at the University at Buffalo pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. I love solving problems and enjoy challenges that require innovation and creativity. My passion lies in building new things and I'm particularly fascinated with machine learning. Whenever I get the opportunity, I like to attend hackathons and network defense competitions. Currently I'm working as a remote software eningeering intern at a start-up called Kryptonite, as an undergraduate research assistant for professor Bina Ramamurthy and as a software tester for the UB Nanosatellite Lab. On campus, I'm invloved with the UB CSE advisory board where we act as the bridge between CSE students and faculty and am also involved with the UB ACM where I attend regular work sessions for the newest technologies. Landing an internship for the upcoming spring and summer is my biggest priority right now.

My interests outside of programming lie in music and gaming. Whenever I'm not learning something new or honing my problem-solving skills, I usually practice on my guitars, listen to music or grind out some rank matches on League of Legends.

PROJECTS

Incoming Project
Github
Incoming project for the UB hackathon
Bus Lateness Predictor and Visualizer
Github
A project for Rochester DandyHacks hackathon that predicts the likelihood of on-time arrivals for different buses and then maps those predictions to Google Maps. The predictions have an accuracy of 80% and will allow users to visually see which buses will have a higher probability of arriving late for a certain month. It uses machine learning algorithms, Jupyter Notebook, Python, HTML5, JavaScript and the Google Maps API. Future plans for this project includes making the website dynamic to certain requests from the users.
Project
CryptoBot
Github
A bot that trades Etheruem on Coinbase Pro. The trading logic is set on simple moving averages. Tested the bot on historical data and made a profit of 5$ on paper money. Wrote the bot in Python and used the Coinbase Pro API to make all the requests. Future plans for the project include the integration of more trading algorithms, support for more currencies and testing on real money.
Portfolio
Github
A responsive static website that serves as my online portfolio. Used JavaScript, HTML5 and CSS3 to build it from scratch. Future plans include keeping the portfolio updated and adding new features to the website.
Stem Ed Interactive Fractions
Github
The project for my extracurricular research over the summer at UB that helps to interactively teach fractions to young kids. It was made in collaboration with 3 other students. The final product uses fractional circles, the arduino micro-controller and an interface made in Java. It is now being further developed by other students and is also being used for research.
Codenames
Github
A board game written in Java. This was a semester-long project where we had to work in teams to build the game from scratch. Learned iterative software cycles, object-oriented programming and version control. Responsibilities included writing the test cases and parts of the game mechanics.
