About

***Who I Am*** I'm a passionate software engineer with a knack for building things from scratch. Whether it's tackling a broken gadget or crafting innovative software solutions, I thrive on the challenge of creation. Beyond the technical skills you'll see on my profile, I'm also a serious cinephile and a dedicated basketball & badminton player – always up for a friendly competition (both on and off the court!). ***Tech Enthusiast*** My core expertise lies in building end-to-end applications. I'm currently broadening my horizons by developing cross-platform mobile experiences with Android and iOS, in addition to building backend systems. I've also dabbled in web development, a college website using C#.NET. As a freshy out of college, I built a backend system on Node.js/AWS for an e-commerce startup. At FinBox, I'm helping revolutionize the lending industry! I build high-quality, user-friendly mobile SDKs & robust backend solutions that streamline integration for our partners. But my role goes beyond just code. I get involved in the entire development cycle, collaborating with clients to understand their needs, designing and building backend systems, and ensuring everything runs smoothly. ***Bits & Bobs*** - You on a Samsung device running OneUI 5.0 or above? I have code already running on your device ;D

Helping FinBox revolutionize the lending industry with kickass mobile experiences! I build high-quality Android and iOS SDKs that make integration a breeze for our partners. But that's not all - I also get my hands dirty designing and building backend systems to ensure everything runs smoothly. ️
I even wear the product hat, chatting directly with clients to understand their needs, and then rolling up my sleeves to build, ship, and support their solutions. No project is too big or too small for this do-it-all engineer!

When I'm not wrangling mobile experiences at FinBox, I'm over at JustUpdated, my personal playground for all things engineering. Here, I create fun and functional Android apps, experiment with backend, and even have a couple of apps out there in the wild (one on the Play Store and others on GitHub)! It's all about learning, pushing boundaries, and having a blast while doing it.
