Nandika Karnik



I'm a passionate Computer Science major with a minor in the Mathematics of Finance, curious about how data and algorithms can drive better decision-making—especially in the world of finance. I enjoy working on projects that have real-world relevance and lead to insights that matter. I grew up coding and have fond memories of building games on Scratch as a little girl. Since then, my curiosity about the many ways technology can be applied has only grown.

Outside of tech, I love trying new recipes, watching Doctor Who, or getting lost in a good book.
