Om

Between data and divinity, I architect systems that think, learn, and serve.

Enter the Cosmos
कर्म

Karma

Work is worship. Every commit, every model, every system - built with intention and care. The outcome follows the effort.

विद्या

Vidya

Knowledge pursued relentlessly. From the Bhagavad Gita to Bayesian statistics - learning never stops, it only deepens.

सेवा

Seva

Technology should serve. I build systems that help people, not replace them. Impact over impressiveness.

धर्म

Dharma

Duty above comfort. Ship what matters, not what is easy. Stay rooted in purpose while reaching for the cosmos.

The Profile

A curious learner passionate about making an impact through technology. From witnessing tech's evolution, Napster to LLMs, MySpace to Generative AI, I've been fascinated by how machines shape our world.

With a Master's in Big Data & AI from Berlin University of Applied Sciences, I now work as a Solutions Architect in the CTO department at Santander Bank.

Beyond work, I volunteer with NGOs, have explored 20+ countries, and love reading non-fiction, hiking, and discussing real-world solutions. If our paths cross - at a conference, a coffee shop, or over chai - I'd love to connect.
