A bit more about me.

The messy process of coding, travel, and putting things out in public.

My Journey

Currently based in the tech hub of Bangalore, I dedicate my days (and a fair share of late nights) to engineering intelligent software products. My path as a developer began in a scenic town in Odisha.

Moving out of my hometown alone was a defining moment. Stepping outside of a structured comfort zone teaches you lessons no textbook can duplicate — from handling daily logistics and budgeting to surviving the classic startup sprint at the end of the month. It forces you to grow.

When I'm not actively shipping code or tuning LLMs, I travel to unplug. I enjoy exploring new cities, taking visual snapshots along road trips, studying historic local architecture, and finding remote spots. The best travel itineraries are usually the ones made on the fly.

I also love sharing knowledge and experiences. I run a YouTube channel where I document developer workflows, explain concepts simply, and share realistic snippets of coding life. Creating content keeps me sharp and connects me with an incredible global community.

I thrive on side projects. I am the kind of builder who gets hit by inspiration at midnight; while some ideas get completed and deployed, others remain in a state of forever-drafts — and to me, that playground is half the fun.
