## About

Hey, I’m Nikhil Bhatt\! I have a BE in Information Science and Engineering from New Horizon College of Engineering, a place where I’ve learned not only how to code but also how to survive on caffeine and deadlines\! Currently, I’m working at Unisys as an Associate Software Engineer in AI team\. I thrive in Agile environments \(because who doesn’t love a good sprint, right?\), and I’m always looking for ways to combine tech and business whether that’s solving a problem in the cloud or brainstorming the next big startup idea\. I love learning, adapting, and diving into new challenges headfirst \(which often involves some learning the hard way, but hey, I’ve got a good sense of humor about it\)\. If you're looking for someone who’s technically sharp, a fast learner, and can bring a smile to the team, let’s connect\! Because at the end of the day, success is a team sport and I’m always in the game\.
