Hi, my name is
Aavash Kuikel.
I build things for the web.
I'm a Full Stack Engineer shipping AI-powered solutions with React/TypeScript frontend, Spring Boot APIs & MongoDB. Currently focused on building exceptional digital experiences at Persa.
About Me
Hello! My name is Aavash and I'm a Full Stack Engineer based in Nashville, TN. I enjoy building things that live on the internet, whether that be websites, applications, or anything in between.
My goal is to always build products that provide pixel-perfect, performant experiences. I'm currently working as an Application Developer at Persa, where I engineer high-throughput backend APIs in Spring Boot and design RESTful microservices.
I'm pursuing my Bachelor's in Computer Science at Fisk University with a minor in Mathematics, maintaining a 3.94 GPA. Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
- ▹JavaScript (ES6+)
- ▹TypeScript
- ▹React.js
- ▹Next.js
- ▹Node.js
- ▹Python
- ▹Java
- ▹Spring Boot
- ▹PostgreSQL
- ▹MongoDB
- ▹AWS
- ▹Docker
