About

I’m a Computer Science undergraduate and production-focused full-stack engineer building and operating real-world systems across backend, frontend, and cloud infrastructure. Currently pursuing a B.Tech in Computer Science at Lovely Professional University (Class of 2026), I’ve worked hands-on across the full software lifecycle from API and system design to production deployment and reliability. My experience includes delivering end-to-end web platforms for international clients, including insurance companies in Canada and businesses in the United States, where I owned architecture decisions, secure authentication flows, dashboards, and live deployments. Alongside engineering work, I founded and led technical training cohorts in Generative AI, Backend Engineering, and DevOps, teaching working professionals across global geographies. My focus as an educator is on systems thinking, real-world tradeoffs, and production readiness, not tool-level tutorials. Previously, I contributed as a Full-Stack Developer at Compass Technologies, building and maintaining production applications using modern web stacks and collaborating with engineers to ship reliable features to live environments. I care deeply about clean code, scalable architecture, and operational reliability — and I enjoy building, breaking, and improving systems that have to work in the real world.
