About Me

Hello there! 👋 I’m Diya Vinod — a curious explorer of code, creativity, and everything in between. I’m a first-year Computer Science student at Kalaignarkarunanidhi Institute of Technology, specializing in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (a.k.a. the future!).

From debugging Python scripts to designing Canva slides, I thrive at the intersection of logic and imagination. Every day, I wake up excited to learn something new — whether it's writing my first automation script or experimenting with AI tools that turn imagination into visuals.

Outside the classroom, I’m constantly tinkering — creating reels, sketching random ideas, editing videos with quirky effects, or building fun side projects that keep me awake way past bedtime. I believe learning doesn’t stop at subjects — it’s in the stories, visuals, tools, and memes we create!

This portfolio? It’s more than a collection of skills. It’s a reflection of my journey so far and the exciting roadmap ahead. Scroll through — and if you relate, let’s connect!

Skills

⚙️ Programming Languages
I speak the language of logic. Python is my best friend — simple, powerful, and always fun to work with. I also dabble in C, HTML, and CSS — the building blocks that shape the digital world.

🛠️ Tools & Software
VS Code is my home. Canva is my creative playground. Google Sheets? That's my brain's extension for organizing chaos into clarity.

🤖 AI & Automation
Whether it’s writing a killer ChatGPT prompt or crafting AI visuals with Leonardo or PixVerse, I love exploring the potential of machines thinking smart.

🎬 Content Creation
Video editing? I’m all in. Memes? Yes, I create those too — sometimes relatable, sometimes ridiculous, always scroll-stopping.

💡 Soft Skills
Communication, adaptability, problem-solving, and an unstoppable thirst for learning — these aren’t just buzzwords, they’re the tools I use every single day.

Certifications

I'm a firm believer that learning doesn’t need to be confined to classrooms. That’s why I’ve taken online deep dives into areas that excite me. Here are a few highlights from my certificate wall:

• 🧠 "Get Started with Python" by Google (Coursera) — where it all began!
• 🌐 "HTML & CSS Crash Course" (Scrimba x Coursera) — because front-end is just too much fun.
• 📊 "Spreadsheets for Beginners" using Google Sheets — turns out data can be kind of addictive.
• 🤖 "Basic Image Classification with TensorFlow" — baby steps into deep learning.
• 🧬 "Deep Learning and Reinforcement Learning" (IBM) — a glimpse into the brain of machines.
• 💻 "Problem Solving Through Programming in C" — an NPTEL classic every engineer should go through.

Hobbies

My brain doesn't switch off after code — it just changes gears. 😄

• 🎨 Sketching — From classroom doodles to full-blown character art, my pencil's seen it all.
• 📽️ Editing short videos — Because life looks better in transitions and slow-mo.
• 🧠 Exploring AI tools — I love testing tools that turn words into pictures or automate the impossible.
• 📚 Reading — Especially fiction and anything that boosts your mindset. A good book is a portal, not just pages.

Languages

My brain is a multilingual playground. Here's how I picked up the languages I know:

• 🇬🇧 English — The language of school, learning, and now code comments too!
• 🇮🇳 Malayalam — My mother tongue and the voice of home. From lullabies to life lessons.
• 🇮🇳 Tamil — Picked up during my school years in Tamil Nadu. It grew on me like filter coffee and Pongal.
• 🇮🇳 Hindi — Thanks to my early years in New Delhi, I still say "theek hai" before "okay."
• 🇮🇳 Kannada — I don’t speak fluently, but after 4 years in Bangalore, I know enough to smile and say "Channagide!"

Currently Learning

My learning playlist is always on shuffle! 🎧 Here's what I'm currently deep diving into:

• ⚔️ C++ — because competitive programming needs that extra speed boost.
• 🎨 Frontend Development — learning to make things not just work, but *wow*.
• 🚀 Competitive Programming — logic puzzles and brain teasers are my idea of fun.
• 🌐 Django — I’m learning to go from “Hello World” to full-stack web wizardry.
