Me

Software engineer based in New Delhi, India with a knack for reverse engineering and building software that solves real-world problems.

I hold a B.Tech in Computer Science and a Diploma in Electrical Engineering, giving me a unique edge across hardware and software. I've built open-source tools for automations, file sharing, video streaming, and IoT control.

When I'm not shipping code, I'm probably tinkering with embedded systems or exploring new ways to make technology more accessible.
