## about
i'm a data scientist at RBC and a math + cs / bba double-degree student at the university of waterloo and wilfrid laurier.
on the side i build small, useful things — mostly data tools, scrapers, and web apps. most of them start as "i wish this existed" and end up on the internet a few weekends later.
currently into competitive valorant analytics, ebook discovery, and porting cool unix-y tools to windows.

## projects
- [vlr-api](https://github.com/shreshth-s/vlr-api): unofficial vlr.gg API for live + historical valorant stats — ratings, clutch %, first kills, team rankings, match data, all filterable by tournament/region. self-heals when vlr.gg breaks: catches the error, asks codex to find the new selectors, and re-points the scraper.
- [bookwormd](https://bookwormd.com): browse bestsellers and find free downloads. made anna’s archive easy to browse so you never have to pay for an ebook again.
- [clicky-windows](https://github.com/shreshth-s/clicky-windows): windows port of @FarzaTV’s clicky. saw it, thought it was cool, built it for windows. cleanup + open-source pass in progress.
- [val-events-radars](https://val-events-radars.streamlit.app/): pulls + updates valorant pro player data and renders comparable radar charts per event. fast, lightweight, deployed on streamlit.
