About

After 7 successful years as an SDE and SDM at Amazon building large-scale systems, I am taking a deliberate period for strategic exploration. My current focus is on the intersection of technology and human-centric design. I'm researching the next wave of Applied AI while concurrently pursuing an M.A. in Organizational Psychology to understand the critical human elements - like team dynamics and user adoption - that drive successful innovation. I am open to fractional and full-time leadership roles where I can apply this unique blend of technical and psychological insight to solve complex challenges. If your team in Bengaluru is tackling difficult problems in cloud-native technology or intelligent systems, I would love to connect.
