A little about me.

Portrait of Sanaya Vakharia
THE PERSON BEHIND THE PROJECTS ✳

Analytical by nature.
Creative by instinct.

I'm Sanaya, a UC San Diego graduate with a background spanning computer science, machine learning, analytics, and consulting. I like working on problems that need both technical depth and a broader understanding of people and business.

Whether I'm prototyping a recommendation system, exploring a dataset, or thinking through a product idea, I care about making the complicated feel intuitive.
