Three ways I create

01
Engineer
Systems that scale

I write Go for production distributed systems and Python for scientific computing. I care about correctness, performance, and elegant APIs. Currently building backend infrastructure at Tekion Corp's FixedOps team — automotive software serving dealerships at scale.

I think in products and systems. I founded EinsteinPy and led it from a weekend experiment to a community-maintained open source library used by researchers globally. I'm drawn to hard problems where software can change how people work — and I'm always working on something new.

Designer
Craft over complexity

Good design is invisible. I obsess over clarity — in code, in interfaces, in communication. Whether it's a developer-facing API, a talk slide deck, or a landing page, I believe that the simplest thing that works is usually the most beautiful.
