Nikhi Bhambra | Software Developer

I am a fourth year CS, Statistics, and Math student at the University of Toronto with a fascination for data science, software engineering, and neural networks for cognitive science research. Currently developing Care+ at MedMe Health.

I am also a multi-disciplinary designer with a background in UI Design, Product Design, and UX Writing because even the smartest programs need to be beautiful.
