Hi , I'm Manu Gupta

AI Engineer | Data Scientist | Full Stack Developer

🚀 About Me

AI Engineer and Full Stack Developer with a strong foundation in computational modeling and data analysis. Leveraging my PhD experience in computational Astrophysics and analyzing space mission data, I now apply those analytical and programming skills to AI/ML and web development challenges. I love tackling complex problems and creating innovative solutions that make a difference.
