About
I grew up in India and crossed an ocean to study at New York University, where I earned a Master's in Computer Science with a near-perfect GPA — proof, mostly, that I genuinely enjoy learning things properly.
By profession I build intelligent software. By disposition I'm a generalist — equally happy debugging a stubborn pipeline, planning a mountain trip, or debating which airline flies the best transatlantic route.
The throughline is balance. Early miles on the pavement and quiet time on the yoga mat keep the engine steady; books on philosophy and inner work keep the compass honest.
I'm happiest outdoors with people I like — chasing waterfalls, watching air shows, or just finding the best golden-hour view in whatever city I've landed in.
What I Do
I work in the AI & machine learning space — designing, engineering and shipping intelligent systems end-to-end. As a consultant I've partnered with clients across the life sciences and finance industries, turning ambitious ideas into working software and leading teams along the way.
Large language models, retrieval systems, agents and applied ML — taking ideas from research paper to real product.
Production-grade code and cloud infrastructure — the unglamorous plumbing that makes clever things reliable.
Working alongside client teams in life sciences and finance — translating between the technical and the human.
Ports of call
Beyond Work
Aircraft spotted, books underlined, trails walked, music played too loud, and the occasional co-op campaign. There's a whole page of it.

An idea worth building, a trail worth walking, a book worth reading, or the aircraft you just spotted — my inbox is open.
