How I got here.
From my first line of code to funded AI platforms, hackathon streaks, and shipping apps worldwide.
First Line of Code
Started 1st year of B.Tech in AI & Data Science, wrote my very first line of code in Python, and participated in my first coding event. Jumped straight into an intense 24-hour hackathon that sparked a relentless obsession with building real software from scratch.
₹2L+ Govt-Funded AI Healthcare App (Nain 2.0)
Contributed to an AI-driven medical healthcare platform under the prestigious Nain 2.0 initiative backed with ₹2L+ funding by the Government of Karnataka. Spearheaded frontend architectures and AI model pipelines transitioning from pitch deck into real production.
Winning 5x Hackathons Back-to-Back
Went on a high-stakes competitive streak, securing 1st Prize at CodeBharat IIIT Dharwad (₹50K), 3rd Prize at Onest Hubli (₹25K), and 5+ podium finishes across national hackathons by architecting rapid autonomous AI agents and scalable full-stack products.
4+ Production Products & 6+ Months Freelancing
Transformed technical mastery into real commercial impact—deployed 4+ robust web applications in active production. Monetized my skills through 6+ months of global freelance engineering, integrating LLMs, PostgreSQL, and Prisma with 95% client retention.
