About me
I'm a final year Mechanical Engineering student at NIT Trichy, working at the intersection of engineering precision, product thinking, and data-driven growth. My journey spans from CFD and sensor research to product building and digital marketing. I thrive on problems that are both technical and human — whether it's optimising a rotor's heat dissipation, running experiments to cut wasted ad spend, or building a marketplace from scratch. I approach every challenge the same way: understand the system, experiment, and ship results. Outside work, I lead the Anime Society, engage in public speaking, and write occasionally — because the best engineers are also great communicators.

Featured Projects
ThriftX — P2P Marketplace
ShippedA full-stack peer-to-peer thrift marketplace built solo from scratch. Includes seller onboarding, listing standards, dispute handling, user auth, and Firebase deployment. Every layer — frontend, backend, database, auth, deployment — designed and shipped independently.
Self-Hosted AI Workstation
ShippedDeployed 10+ open-source LLMs locally on an RTX 4060 using Ollama and Open WebUI. Integrated Groq and OpenRouter cloud APIs in the same interface. Exposed publicly via Cloudflare Tunnel with guest access controls. One-click .bat startup script. ₹0 recurring cost, 40+ tokens/sec local inference.
Skills & Tools
A creative problem solver with over 4 years of programming experience, I've explored diverse programming languages, libraries, and technology stacks, honing my skills in both Frontend, Backend, and App development.
Eager to learn and adept at adopting new technologies, I thrive on expanding my skill set in the ever-evolving tech landscape.
