Hi, I'm
Leema Caravan

Senior CS student at RPI, graduating May 2026. I build things that actually ship — multi-agent AI systems, full-stack products, and tools that solve real problems.

About

Snapshot of who I am and what I like to build.

I'm a Computer Science major at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute with a minor in Economics. I live at the intersection of product, data, and engineering — I care about shipping things that are useful, not just technically interesting.

I've worked in property-tech, academic research, nonprofit data, and K–12 coding education. My recent obsession is local AI: building multi-agent systems that run entirely on your machine, no API keys, no cloud — just real inference solving real problems.

I'm a native Pashto speaker, fluent in English, and passionate about communities that support women in tech. I believe the best software gets built when diverse people ship together.

Projects

Things I've shipped or am actively building.

Healthcare · Multi-Agent AI

Neurosurgical AI Workflow

Multi-agent system simulating neurosurgical care team workflows. Built with Python, LangChain, GPT-4/Ollama, and healthcare standards like FHIR/HIPAA. Collaborated with a neurosurgery resident at Cedars-Sinai on realistic clinical scenarios.

Python LangChain GPT-4 FHIR

Full-Stack · Open Source

RPI EventHub

Full-stack platform for RPI campus events. Built with the MERN stack and shipped collaboratively through RCOS (Rensselaer's open source program). Optimized MongoDB queries for event search and filtering with real student users.

React Node.js MongoDB Bootstrap

Security · ML

Real-Time Phishing URL Detector

ML-powered phishing detection app with a React front end and threat-intel API integration to flag suspicious URLs in real time. Designed for clear "safe vs. suspicious" user feedback.

Python React Scikit-learn

Search · UX · MERN

Search Engine — UI/UX Lead

Led the UI/UX team for a full MERN-stack search engine. Focused on mobile-first design, dark mode, and privacy features like "Leave Me Alone" mode. Coordinated with backend and ranking teams to align UI with system capabilities.
