about

hey, i'm qurb.

short version: i'm a fourth-year software engineering student at carleton who's way too into backend systems, clean architecture, and the kind of code that reads like english.

longer version: i started programming because i wanted to build things, but stayed because i fell for the craft of it. how data flows through a system. why one abstraction holds up and another collapses. why the boring decisions usually win.

right now i'm shipping personal projects, sharpening fundamentals (systems, networks, dsa), and looking for somewhere to do real engineering work. if that's you, drop me a line.
