Hi, my name is Alikhan.

I am an engineer. I research and identify problems, break them down, and engineer resilient systems.

My primary interests are in large-scale AI systems, full stack software engineering, distributed systems, and agentic AI.

I grew up in Central Asia and started programming in high school, where I first learned to code in the Pascal language, taught in a Soviet-style curriculum.

I currently study Computer Science at the Kingsborough Community College of New York

Interests

As a 21-year-old Computer Science student, I combine ambition and curiosity with creativity. I love learning quickly and tackling challenges, whether it’s programming a project, playing guitar and piano, singing, or staying consistent in the gym. When it comes to Computer Science, my journey is personal and exciting—and in my post, I share why I chose this field and what it means to me.

I love playing guitar and combining it with singing. Blending the two skills can be challenging, especially keeping the rhythm, but I enjoy the challenge and the creativity it brings.

I am always excited to learn something new that will give me fresh perspectives, improve my abilities, and bring me closer to achieving my goals.

Skills

What classes I have right now:

In this pre-calculus course we learn real numbers, open sentences, functions and relations, and serves as an introduction to analytic geometry and to probability.

In this course we study algorithms, programs, data representation, debugging and verification of programs. Numeric and non-numeric programming applications include searching and sorting algorithms, function and procedures, and number theory problems.

This course is a consideration of how digital technologies impact individuals daily lives, social movements & civic activities. How the design and use of algorithms can be influenced by the culture and biases of those designing & using the technologies.

Goals

My goal is to become a successful software engineer with strong technical expertise in computer science and artificial intelligence. I am highly ambitious, eager to learn, and adaptable to new challenges. With proven teamwork experience, leadership potential, and a passion for continuous improvement, I aim to contribute to innovative AI-driven solutions and make a meaningful impact in the tech industry.
