01. About Me

Engineer by day.
Creator by passion.

I'm a Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft, working on Azure Networking — building the cloud infrastructure that powers millions of applications worldwide. I'm passionate about designing scalable, distributed systems that just work.

Beyond my 9-to-5, I'm a content creator reaching over 150,000 people on Instagram and 30,000 on LinkedIn. I create content about AI and tech deep dives, Microsoft behind-the-scenes, career advice for engineers, and the occasional tech humor that makes complex topics accessible and fun.

My journey has taken me from studying Computer Engineering in India, to a Master's in Computer Science at UT Arlington, to engineering roles at Visa and now Microsoft. Along the way, I've won multiple hackathons and built products that reached thousands of users.

When I'm not coding or creating content, you'll find me exploring Seattle's coffee scene, experimenting with the latest AI tools, or brainstorming my next viral tech reel.
