Hey There! 👋

My name is Ankita Saloni.

I'm a final year student of Computer Science & Engineering. I'm an enthusiastic Developer, Community Builder, Hackathon aficionado, and Author. I love mentoring curious minds, public speaking, building projects, participating in hackathons, working on product management strategies, meeting new people, and sipping coffee when I have none of the above works to do.

With an aim to make technology accessible for everyone, I'm working towards building diverse and inclusive communities. 💖

When not occupied, I can be found reading classics, binge-watching suspense thrillers, and savoring lip-smacking cuisines.

That's all from my side for now.

Thank You for visiting my profile. Let's connect! ✨
