About
I'm a second-year CS student at BITS Pilani, currently based on campus in Rajasthan. I grew up in Tokyo, Japan, where my family still lives.
At BITS, I work with DVM (Department of Visual Media) on backend development for the Oasis and Apogee festival platforms using Django, with a focus on security and infrastructure. I also contribute to the Wall Street Club's News Analyser — a Django-based financial news sentiment analysis platform.
My interests span backend systems, DevOps, and applied ML. I'm particularly drawn to distributed systems and making ML pipelines production-worthy.
Outside of tech: fitness (running, gym), cooking, travel planning, music discovery, and hunting down deals on tech gadgets and clothes.
