About

I am a Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience. I am passionate about building products that help people save time and accomplish more in life. I am curious person who loves to understand and learn how things work (especially things that I use). I'm constantly working to develop products that will help me with the challenges I encounter every day. When I am not working on a project I teach on youtube. I often create content for my Youtube channel. You can find all the links and other fun stuff on my website. When I am not a computer, I'm probably cooking some delicious Indian meal or playing soccer with my friends.
