Get to know more about my background and skills
I’m a Software Engineer who took a bit of a different path. I started out in Commerce, but the moment I built my first static page on a phone during the pandemic, I was hooked. Now, I’m all about building efficient, scalable software that solves real problems.
My journey into software development was fueled by a desire to create impactful solutions. I’m dedicated to continuous learning and excited about the future of technology.

My journey from self-taught basics to production-grade engineering
From writing my first line of code as a self-taught enthusiast to architecting complex systems at the intersection of academia and industry.
I joined DITA (Diploma in Information Technology and Applications) in my 11th grade, which was my first formal exposure to programming. It mostly about MS Office, but there is a HTML module that caught my attention. I remember building a simple webpage and being amazed that I could create something on the internet. That was the moment I got hooked on coding.
During the pandemic while doing my B.Com, I started coding just for fun. I didn't even have a laptop yet, so I used an app called SoloLearn on my phone to figure out HTML, CSS, and the basics of JS. Building my first static pages on a mobile screen was where it all started.
I got fascinated by the idea that I could build anything to solve daily problems. I got a laptop and started grinding learning JS in-depth, following Angela Yu, and doing Frontend Mentor challenges. Eventually, I realized I loved this more than commerce, so I joined PW Skills to go deep into the MERN stack and DSA.
Focused on project-based learning and followed everything I could find on YouTube. I joined Harkirat Singh’s 100xDevs cohort, which really opened my eyes to production-grade tech like Next.js, monorepos, and DevOps. I stopped just 'building sites' and started thinking like an engineer.
Applied everywhere and finally landed an internship at a startup in Kolkata. This was the big shift—learning how real teams work, contributing to production code, and understanding how to build scalable backends. Seeing my work actually help a business grow made me even more hooked on development.
Still pushing every day. I joined the SMU online MCA program to get that formal degree while staying in the industry. My goal is simple: keep improving 0.5% every single day and build software that makes an impact.
