About

Maryam Yousaf

Hi, I'm Maryam.

I'm a second-year Software Engineering student at FAST-NUCES Islamabad. I love building things that make me question my life choices.

My work ranges from C++ game development with SFML to frontend web development, and building a neural network from scratch in Python. I'm also exploring cybersecurity this summer, with a growing interest in UI/UX design.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me crocheting, reading, or meowing to cats.
