About Me
I build secure, scalable systems at the intersection of AI/ML, Cybersecurity, and Web3.
As a Computer Science sophomore (B.Tech ’28), I focus on product-driven engineering — creating end-to-end prototypes that merge LLMs, decentralized architecture, and robust backends to solve real-world challenges.
What I Deliver:
• Production-ready prototypes that are secure, scalable, and deployable.
• LLM-powered systems optimized for cost and latency (local-first + cloud fallback).
• Cross-domain builds uniting AI, Web3, and system design.
