About

I started creating things on the internet early. At 13, I ran a gaming YouTube channel and earned around $250 during 2017–18 my first taste of building online and getting paid for it.

In March 2020, just before COVID, I got my first laptop. Gaming slowly turned into curiosity about how the web works, which led me from Wix, WordPress, and Blogger to learning the core web technologies.

How it started

University was a turning point. I met a friend who was exceptional at coding and introduced me to GitHub and learning in public. That changed everything.

I began exploring new technologies, building projects, and enjoying the process of creating software. Curiosity became consistency and then a serious path.

Outside of code, I also wrote poetry. It helped me think clearly, observe deeply, and express ideas better—skills that still influence how I build today.

Now

I work as a software engineer building reliable, scalable systems, often in fast-moving or early-stage environments where ownership matters.

My interests lie in backend systems, infrastructure, and using AI to simplify complex workflows. I also actively contribute to open-source software and learn from the community.

I’m still learning, building, and improving. Engineering, for me, is a long game of curiosity and compounding effort.

Engineering focus

Most of my recent work sits where product engineering meets backend and infrastructure work. I have built full-stack applications, workflow systems, cloud deployments, search migrations, database migrations, and AI-assisted product features. I care about systems that remain understandable after launch: clear failure modes, practical observability, maintainable interfaces, and infrastructure that does not make routine product work harder than it needs to be.

The Work page is the clearest record of my roles and responsibilities. Writing contains longer explanations of the technical problems I have explored, including cloud infrastructure, containers, CI/CD, databases, Typesense, and production reliability. My GitHub profile provides additional evidence of open-source contributions and experiments.
