About Me
Hi, I am Alekya, a Computer Science master’s student at California State University, Sacramento, graduated in December 2024. With a solid foundation in computer science and 5 years of software development experience, my journey into web development began with a deep fascination for design and user interfaces.
I initially found myself captivated by how dynamic elements create engaging user experiences. This curiosity grew into a passion as I delved into frontend technologies like React and JavaScript, and expanded into backend development with Python and Flask.
Currently, I work as a Full Stack Developer at the Office of Water Programs, where I craft solutions for environmental health. Previously, at Accenture, I was Promoted to Application Development Senior Analyst, gaining valuable experience in Managing Teams, Sprint planning, Frontend Development and Code Reviewing. My combined expertise in leadership and development fuels my drive to build impactful web applications.

I developed an Outlook email assistant add-in designed to help students draft academically appropriate emails with greater ease and professionalism. The project was aimed at improving communication between students and academic staff by providing assistance in structuring emails, ensuring proper tone, and responding to common queries. Leveraged Large Language Models (LLMs) to suggest and generate well-structured email drafts based on the context provided by the student. Provided a set of predefined templates for frequently asked questions, such as, Extensions on assignments, Inquiries about course materials.

I along with my peers designed and developed the base model for a research paper focusing on Multi-label Text Classification using an Attention-based Graph Neural Network (GNN). The primary objective was to classify textual data into multiple categories, leveraging the graph structure to capture relationships between labels and input text features. After building the GNN model, I further enhanced the model's performance by integrating a BERT transformer.
I developed an interactive dashboard using JavaScript and Chart.js to visualize and analyze data from the FIFA World Cup dataset, while integrating a Flask backend for data management through GET and POST APIs. The project involved creating a full-stack solution where the frontend dashboard provided dynamic data visualization, and the backend enabled data persistence and CRUD operations. Integrated an ORM (Object Relational Mapping) layer to interact with a Redis database, ensuring efficient data storage and retrieval.
