Hello, my name is Akash Muthukumar. I am a Master of Computer Science graduate from UIUC with experience in software engineering, cloud systems, data, and machine learning. I have worked on projects involving Python, FastAPI, AWS, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, REST APIs, and LLM security.

I am interested in volunteering because I want to use my technical skills to support meaningful projects while gaining real-world experience. I am especially interested in backend development, APIs, data analysis, dashboards, automation, cloud systems, and AI/ML tools.

Through volunteering, I hope to contribute to useful projects, learn from collaborative teams, improve my communication skills, and grow as a software engineer.
