About Me

I don't just write code.
I architect solutions.

My journey started at the intersection of hardware and software where most engineers pick one lane, I built bridges between them. From writing C++ firmware for embedded microcontrollers to training ML models, I operate across the full stack of intelligent systems.

I've worked on systems where failure isn't an option, autonomous robots operating in unstructured environments demand precision, reliability, and real time decision making. That mentality carries into every product I build.

Beyond engineering, I think like a founder, every technical decision is weighed against business impact. If it doesn't move the needle, it doesn't ship.
