About Me
From building simple Blogspot sites in 10th grade to architecting AI-powered applications
My Journey
My coding journey started way back in school around 10th grade when I first discovered Blogspot. I didn't know anything about coding, but creating small websites felt magical. That curiosity pushed me to WordPress, where I learned customization, hosting, and design.
Slowly, I moved from just clicking buttons to actually writing code… and that's where everything changed. From those simple beginnings, I kept building, learning, and experimenting bit by bit until coding became my career.
Over the past 5+ years, I've had the privilege of contributing to products like Astra Theme (used by 7M+ websites) and building AI-powered applications that solve real problems for real people.
What Drives Me
What really excites me? The intersection of AI and user experience. I love building things that don't just work they feel intelligent and intuitive. Whether it's a chatbot that actually understands context or a workflow builder that makes automation simple, I want users to think "wow, this just works."
I'm the kind of person who gets excited about shaving 3 seconds off a page load time or refactoring messy code into something clean and elegant. The technical challenges architecting scalable systems, optimizing performance, integrating AI that's what keeps me up at night (in a good way).
These days, I'm all in on Next.js, React, TypeScript, and AI tools like OpenAI and Claude. Building the future, one feature at a time.
