Who I am

I'm Shaheer, a UCSD Data Science graduate and full-stack developer. I specialize in building scalable education technology solutions, conducting computational neuroscience research, and developing data-driven applications with React, TypeScript, and Python.

Highlights

  • Built and scaled The Kaizen Academy to $60,000+ revenue in 2 months as CEO & Co-Founder
  • Led Project DIANA to 1st place at EPICS IEEE Las Vegas Conference, securing $10,000 funding
  • Developed responsive UIs at QuickCruit.Ai, improving accessibility scores by 27%
  • Conducted computational neuroscience research on brain mapping using graph-based analysis

Now

Freshly graduated from UCSD (March 2026) with a B.S. in Data Science. Currently building Longevity — an AI health platform — growing The Kaizen Academy's summer programs, and exploring what's next where machine learning meets human impact.
