Hello, I'mMihir Kondapalli
Software Engineer & Researcher
I build digital frameworks, develop simulations, and research innovative technologies at the intersection of machine learning and computational science.
About Me
I'm a Computer Science major at UC Santa Barbara with a passion for building computational frameworks and researching innovative technologies.
As a Regents Scholar and Engineering Honors Student, I've worked with the UCSB Vision Research Lab and the Exoplanet Polarimetry Lab, implementing advanced algorithms and developing high-fidelity simulations.
My research interests include machine learning, simulation, optimization, and computational physics. I enjoy tackling complex problems that bridge the gap between theoretical models and practical applications.
