About

Currently building cool stuff as an SDE I @ Finmo 🧑‍🚀 turning fintech ideas into real products that (hopefully) make life easier. I’m the kind of coder who believes in shipping fast and delivering value, focusing on building products that actually solve problems and make an impact 🚀 Ex-GDSC Lead, where I led 15+ amazing devs, hosted tech events, and kickstarted projects that shipped. Along the way, I’ve built 5+ projects across AI, apps, and beyond, because one idea is never enough. Big on collab, learning fast, and building things that matter. Always down to jam with builders, dreamers, and doers 💡✨
