About Me

I build data and ML systems that turn everyday problems into measurable answers.

This is my story — told alongside a few photos from moments I've captured along the way.

Where it started

Where it started.

My curiosity for technology started early. I was always fascinated by computers and how intelligent systems could assist humans.

Watching Interstellar sparked a deeper interest in artificial intelligence and the idea that machines could help solve complex problems.

That curiosity eventually led me toward the world of data and AI.

Building the foundation

Building the foundation.

I studied Computer Science with a specialization in Data Analytics at Vellore Institute of Technology.

During this time, I explored topics such as machine learning, statistics, and data systems, which helped me understand how data forms the foundation for intelligent technologies.

Later, I joined IBM, where I worked on enterprise systems supporting hundreds of users. Working in these large environments helped me understand how technology operates at scale and how solving system problems can have a real impact on organizations.

The turning point

The turning point.

While working in enterprise systems, I realized something important.

I didn't just want to maintain systems — I wanted to build intelligent products.

That realization pushed me to deepen my knowledge of data systems, machine learning, and AI.

What I'm building now

What I'm building now.

Today, I'm pursuing my Master's in Data Science at the University of Colorado Boulder.

Alongside my studies, I enjoy building projects that explore the intersection of data engineering and AI. Recently, I've been working on tools like a system that tracks credit card bills in one place using automated data pipelines.

I enjoy building practical systems like this that turn everyday problems into small engineering solutions.

Beyond technology

Beyond technology.

Outside of technology, I enjoy photography, football, music, and cooking.

I like exploring new places, trying new food, and capturing moments with my camera. I also keep a bucket list of experiences I hope to pursue along the way.

Many of these moments become photos alongside this story.

Thanks for stopping by!
