Software engineer by trade, multidisciplinary creator at heart. I spend my time coding systems, diving deep into audio/video tools, and capturing moments through photography. Whether it's clean logic or creative media, I’m always experimenting with new software and crafting across mediums.

A little back story about my programming career..

When I first joined engineering back in 2006, I had absolutely no clue what programming was. Words like C and C++ felt like complete jargon, and honestly, the textbooks didn't help one bit.
Everything changed in my fourth semester when I started taking classes from an ITI instructor named Chandrahasan Sir. Hands down, he was the best programming teacher I ever had. His style was so unique - he managed to teach the entire concept of Object-Oriented Programming using just a simple "sum of two numbers" example. That single lightbulb moment made everything click.
That was where my real passion for coding began, and soon enough, I picked up the knack to write logic in pretty much any language. Fast forward 15 years in the tech industry, and even though AI handles a lot of the heavy coding nowadays, the core fundamentals Chandrahasan Sir taught me are still my guiding force. I'll always be grateful to him for laying the foundation of my career.
