Soham Salunke

Hello! My name is Soham Salunke and I'm studying Computer Science and User Experience Design at the University of UMich Block Michigan.

I am also working at Amazon as a Jr. Software Development Engineer and helping run the tech behind MHacks.

I like building things that people enjoy using or are useful to them, figuring out how large systems hold up at scale, messing around with LLMs, and learning more about how design shapes our lives.

On campus, I'm a part of Atlas Digital Tech Consulting, a tech consulting organization with some really cool people, and V1 Michigan, a community of student builders .

I like to spend my free time hanging out with friends & family, eating good food, working out, playing pickleball, art & animation, and keeping up with my favorite sports teams Detroit LionsDetroit PistonsMichigan Wolverines
