About Me

B.Tech CS graduate with ~2 years as a Founding Software Engineer. Specialized in full-stack engineering, DevOps, and systems programming — with a deep obsession for low-level systems, real-time rendering, and game engine development.

I started my journey obsessing over how computers work at the lowest level — writing bare-metal code, building operating system kernels, and implementing compilers from scratch. That foundation shaped how I approach every problem: understand the system, then build on top of it.
