Aditya Kushwaha

I’m Aditya Kushwaha, an entrepreneur, engineer, and problem solver passionate about technology, business, and design. With a background in computer science and a strong foundation in AI, robotics, and web development, I thrive at the intersection of engineering and strategy. I have experience working on computer vision and machine learning projects, including lunar surface exploration and missile target optimization. Currently, I’m expanding my expertise in probability, statistics, and quantitative finance, aiming to break into high-frequency trading and algorithmic finance. Beyond AI, I have hands-on experience in full-stack development with JavaScript, React, Python, SQL, and C++. Whether it’s optimizing algorithms, designing intuitive user experiences, or exploring financial markets, I’m always driven by impact, efficiency, and innovation.
