Most people have never heard of the systems I work on, which is fair, because they only surface once a month when a finance team closes its books. At PwC India I build the planning and reporting systems that sit underneath month-end and budgeting, mostly in SAP.

The interesting part is the variety. Across three years I've worked with businesses in shipping, pharmaceuticals, rail, outsourcing and food, in Asia, North America and Europe. Every one of them measures itself differently, and you learn a lot about how a business actually works from the way it chooses to count things.

Three years in, it has taught me most of what I know about how businesses actually run, and I still enjoy the problems it puts in front of me. What I find myself curious about is the side of the table where those problems get chosen.

I volunteered with YATAN for a year, teaching computer literacy to underprivileged children at a school of around 120 students. I also helped them with life skills while supporting zero-waste initiatives.

At Jeev Atma Foundation I was one of the early members brought in to build international reach for 'Shop for Cause', a marketplace that sells handicrafts made by artisans in underserved communities to buyers abroad.

Looking ahead, I am planning to build Plateful Planet — a community initiative making food and water waste uncool.

I have worked on a variety of projects, including Pollar, a polling app launched on iOS, to gather real-time public opinion. I also published a study of consumer trust in India's influencer market, built on a survey I designed and ran with 250 respondents. I built ADG Connect an admin portal for club activities and Evo an events portal for campus events and registrations.

At Cogoport, a logistics SaaS platform, I built user-focused web interfaces that made workflows more efficient. Around the same time, I created Cristatus, an NPM Package for React offering handy utilities with simple documentation. I then collaborated with Kauban Developers, shaping the digital presence of a real-estate brand.

Beyond these, my Github reflects my ongoing curiosity, featuring numerous smaller experiments in web development.

As the Vice Chairperson of Apple Developers Group (ADG) at VIT Vellore, I led initiatives to nurture learning in web development, mentoring over 100 students.

We successfully organized a 48-hour hackathon with 350+ participants and secured over Rs. 2 lakhs in sponsorship. I hosted HackGrid.pkg, a YouTube live event with industry experts, and conducted hands-on sessions, enriching our community's skills and knowledge.

My tenure at ADG VIT was marked by a commitment to driving growth, fostering learning, and promoting innovation within our community.

Science first drew me in as an Amateur Astronomer L2 with the SPACE Club, where I also joined Project Paridhi to popularize astronomy.

Later, I co-developed a Traffic & Parking Optimization Model applying Braess theorem, winning 2nd prize at Northcap University.

At VIT, I earned III Prize at Stat-a-Thon for forecasting COVID-19's impact, the Wolf of Code Street badge for business acumen, and Best Performer in the documentary contest for “NoMo A Phobia”. I also contributed to the Asia & India Book of Records Poster Exhibition on Sensible Living.
