About Me

I'm a Software Engineer with 4+ years of experience building distributed systems, scalable APIs, and cloud infrastructure. I hold an M.S. in Computer Science from Oregon State University and have worked across enterprise and research platforms at companies like VersionX Innovations and Adani.

At VersionX, I owned backend architecture end-to-end, built microservices for enterprise clients including Amazon and Puma, and shipped security and analytics products used by 200+ concurrent users. At Adani, I led a full Angular migration across 8 logistics modules and resolved production performance bottlenecks at scale. I care about clean systems, reliable deployments, and code that actually holds up in production.
