About

I like the hard, unglamorous parts — clean architecture, dependable systems, and teams that ship calmly. Over 15+ years I've gone from engineer to CTO, building backends, cloud infrastructure and AI-driven systems, most of it at startups I founded or helped grow. BEng in Electronics & Communication Engineering. "Every breakthrough starts with an impossible dream."
