Summary
I'm Kabir Arya, an Electrical Engineering student at the University of North Texas with a strong background in physics, mathematics, and hands-on circuit design. I’ve worked on projects like AC-to-DC converters and high-voltage arc generators, and have also contributed to research in astrophysics and quantum computing. Outside of academics, I’ve tutored a wide range of STEM subjects, helping me build strong communication and problem-solving skills. I’m organized, motivated, and enjoy working both independently and with a team. I’m excited for opportunities where I can contribute, learn, and grow.
