open to good problems and good people.

01 / whoami

I'm based in Andhra Pradesh, India, and I've spent years in Kotlin and Dart shipping apps to production.

The platform matters less to me than the making itself: taking a rough idea and turning it into something real that someone, somewhere, actually uses.

Engineer by trade, curious by nature.

01

Mobile engineering

Android · Flutter

My day-to-day. Production Android and Flutter apps, and the architecture behind them.

02

Web development

sites · tools · products

Interfaces and tools that live on the web, from first pixel to deployed.

03

Open source

libraries · CLIs

Libraries, CLIs and small tools, shared as open source for other developers.

04

Experiments

Rust · real-time · ML

Rust, real-time protocols, ML, security, whatever's caught my eye lately.

02 / featured work

Things I've built.

The work I'm most proud of, in and out of the day job.

Weblive site

Rescuing Animals In Need

A website I designed and built for an animal-rescue NGO. Not an experiment, a real product, live on the web, for a cause I care about.
