I'm a Full Stack Engineer and Co-Founder of CivicEase, dedicated to creating premium products that solve real-world problems. Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Technology in AI/ML at JG University (Expected April 2025), I combine theoretical knowledge with practical product development.

My journey has been driven by identifying problems I face personally and transforming them into innovative solutions. This philosophy led to creating ClockSpace, an elite macOS screensaver marketplace that's now open-source and gaining traction.

I'm passionate about system design, AI/ML integration, and building products at scale while maintaining exceptional code quality and user experience. As a Google Developer, I actively leverage Google Cloud technologies and AI/ML APIs to build next-generation applications.
