I'm a second-year Computer Science student at the University of Manchester with a deep passion for building technology that creates real-world impact. My work spans data science, machine learning, agentic AI, and next-generation distributed systems.
I don't just study technology — I ship it. Whether it's building Self-Sovereign Identity systems at Publicis Sapient, directing 200-person hackathons, or leading as VP at UoM Fintech, I thrive in fast-moving environments.
From July 2026, I'm joining BMW Group's Data Science placement team in Birmingham — bringing my ML skills into the future of automotive and mobility tech.
Reimagining digital identity ownership — built using AI agents, AWS Bedrock, and decentralised credential frameworks. Users control their verified data without relying on centralised providers.
Directed UoM's flagship 24-hour hackathon — 200+ participants, 30-person organising team. Oversaw sponsors, judging, logistics, and mentorship end-to-end.
As Event Officer for WISE at UoM, building events and experiences that open doors for women in science and engineering — networking nights, skill workshops, industry partnerships.
"I had the pleasure of working with Shirin during her internship at Sapient while she was in her second year of university. She impressed us with her eagerness to learn, adaptability, and willingness to take on challenges outside her comfort zone.
Shirin is a fast learner who caught up quickly with project tasks, explored solutions on her own, and actively contributed to the team. I especially valued her flexibility and enthusiasm — she consistently showed initiative by volunteering for tasks, even in areas she was new to."
