Life

🏸

Badminton on the court

Weekend smashes, weeknight rallies. Sport sharpens reaction time, and reaction time ships better incident response.

🎓

Teaching as craft

Every cohort forces me to re-derive what I think I know. Students keep me honest and the explanations sharper.

🌐

Building globally

Worked with teams across India, the Gulf, and the EU. Async-first, written-first, time-zone agnostic.

Always learning

Currently deep in agentic LLM systems and the new wave of vector search. Next quarter: distributed Rust.
