I'm a Computer Science student at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
My interest lies in software engieering, which I am actively pursuing opportunities in.
Driven by a desire to help others, I get excited by experiences where I would be able to make a real positive impact.
Below you can find some tools/technologies that I have worked with in the past, however my greatest skill is not these languages,
but rather my ability to use them to solve problems! You can check out some of the stuff I've worked on on my
GitHub. Feel free to shoot me a connection request on
LinkedIn as well or email me at haseebgarfinkel@ucla.edu to chat!

Experiences
Learn a little more about some of the experiences that I have had outside the classroom.
Elegant Mind Club UCLA
I am currently a research assistant at Professor Katsushi Arisaka's lab, aka the Elegant Mind Club. I am working on a team
as part of project TERESA - Teleported Reality Surgical AI. My role involves development on a robotic arm built for precise surgical
applications. I am working on embedded code in C and C++ for the arm, as well as simulation software for a computer visualization of
it using Python. The goal is to use this simulation to aid in training AI tools for controlling the robot.
HYEL
I previously led a small team on a game development project for a startup app called HYEL. HYEL is a mobile app featuring a
variety of games that users can have fun with and compete with their friends. My team's game was called Ocean Explorers,
inspired by the classic game Crossy Road. This experience taught me a lot about software development as me and my team went
through the full development lifecycle, including designing, coding, testing, and everything in between.
De Anza Computer Lab
I also previously spent time as an intern at De Anza College's Computer Lab, in which I worked on getting used computers
ready for student use in order to give disadvantaged students access to the technology they needed. My tasks included
wiping computers, configuring new operating systems, and troubleshooting to identify and resolve issues pertaining to
both software and hardware.
