Hi, I'm Atharva Martiwar, a pre-final year student at National Institute of Technology Rourkela doing my bachelor's degree in Electronics and Electrical Engineering. As a Computer Science & CP Enthusiast, I am keen on problem-solving and logical reasoning through coding. Love to learn DSA and solve coding questions. Good proficiency in C++, Dart, and Python. Currently exploring flutter for Android app development and python for Automation, building web, and Desktop Applications. Apart from my technical skills, I have a great experience in event management and planning. Through experiences and voluntary efforts, I have managed to develop leadership qualities and proficiency in speaking skills. PS: Love to play Badminton & Table Tennis :D
