Learning by building
ROLE
Independent Projects & Hackathons / India
Building applied AI and software systems through personal projects, hackathons, and iterative product development.
ROLE
Community / Open Source / India
Participating in developer communities, open-source contribution programs, and peer learning initiatives in software engineering and AI.
Ideas that made it out of the notes stage and into working projects—from civic tech and privacy to applied machine learning.
AI-powered civic action platform for multilingual reporting and geospatial issue visibility.
Privacy-preserving identity verification flow combining ZK proofs, WebAuthn, and blockchain-ready validation.
Blockchain-based academic credential verification system built around Algorand-based trust and wallet interaction.
ML-based food demand intelligence system that estimates potential surplus / over-preparation risk from operational data.
Peer-learning resource with 55+ structured C programs designed to help learners practice fundamentals and viva preparation.
Code gets more interesting when it’s shared, discussed, and improved with other people.
Contributions
4
A record of contributing, learning alongside other developers, and getting involved beyond solo projects.
Core focus
AI & Data
From civic intelligence and identity systems to prototypes built by trying an idea in code.
Current chapter
Building
Still learning, still building, and always curious about the next problem to take apart.
Short deadlines, big ideas, quick prototypes—and plenty to learn from every build.
