About

Khushaan Virk

I'm a second-year Electrical Engineering student at UBC with hands-on experience in embedded systems, PCB design, and hardware-software integration. Outside of academics I'm an AI Automation Engineer and co-founder at Visurae, and an Automation Engineer at Advizr, where I build AI-powered workflow systems. I'm driven by the challenge of turning low-level hardware into real-world solutions.
