I build clear, reliable, and user-friendly web applications. Currently expanding into AI/ML, I combine full-stack engineering with AI/ML to create smarter digital experiences.
Expertise_
I develop modern web applications and intelligent systems that emphasize performance, scalability, and usability. My work spans the complete development lifecycle, from system design to deployment, integrating AI/ML capabilities into clean, maintainable architectures.
Frontend
Design and development of responsive user interfaces using React, Vite, and Tailwind CSS. Emphasis on performance optimization, accessibility, and reusable component architecture, supported by subtle motion using Framer Motion and Animate.css.
Backend
Development of secure and scalable backend systems using Django, Django REST Framework, and Node.js. Experience in API design, authentication workflows, and database management with MySQL and Supabase.
AI & ML
Building intelligent systems using Large Language Models (LLMs) and RAG pipelines. Experience with PyTorch, LangChain, and vector databases to create context-aware AI applications.
Integration
Integration of frontend and backend systems into cohesive applications with structured data flow, reliable performance, and production-ready deployment practices.

A timeline of my professional journey.
SDE Intern
Built full-stack web applications with React and Django. Designed fast interfaces, structured clean APIs, and managed data with MySQL. Focused on performance, accessibility, and delivering smooth user experiences.
Website Development Head
Leading development and maintenance of Init Club's platforms. Built scalable Supabase backends and high-performance React frontends using Vite and Tailwind CSS, while managing workflows, code reviews, and Git-based collaboration.
Frontend Developer (Remote)
Revamped the competition website with a modern UI theme. Refactored legacy Next.js components to reduce technical debt, and optimized frontend performance through improved architecture and state management.
Projects_
A collection of my recent work.
Ayurveda RAG Engine
A Retrieval-Augmented Generation system that lets users chat with Ayurvedic data. Built with LangChain, Ollama, and a vector database, it demonstrates grounded AI responses.
Dead Poets Society
A poetry-sharing website built with Next.js and Supabase. You can post poems, follow others, and read work from different voices. The system uses Google login and includes moderation tools.
PIT
A simple version control tool written in Python. It recreates features like init, add, commit, branch, checkout, merge, and log. It stores data using structured files and mirrors how Git manages snapshots.
Web Showcase_
