Rishay

Hey, I'm Rishay. I am a Computer Science student at Carnegie Mellon who enjoys building software and understanding how systems work.

I’ve worked on early stage startups and technical projects in AI and security, including Stratus and Diwan, where I spent time building and thinking through real world systems and products.

When I’m not working, I lift, read, and spend time exploring new ideas.
