Hi, I'm

Preet Patel

I'm a 4th year Software Development student at Seneca Polytechnic seeking Winter/Spring 2026 internship opportunities! Eager to contribute and learn from experienced professionals, while building
innovative
solutions.

About Me

Driven by curiosity, collaboration, and a desire to build technology that matters.

Journey

πŸ‘‹ Hey there! I'm Preet. I started coding because I was curious about how things work, and now I build software that helps people solve real problems. My work has been accepted by companies like OpenAI and Supabase to their large-scale (open-source) projects that impact developers worldwide.

🌱 I spend most of my time learning new technologies and applying them to real-world projects. I love participating in hackathons and contributing to open-source projects where I can collaborate with other developers and apply my skills. When I'm AFK, you'll find me enjoying cricket or listening to music.

πŸ’‘ What drives me? The thrill of solving real-world problems and the satisfaction of seeing my work help others. I'm always learning, growing, and ready to tackle the next challenge with curiosity and determination.
