About Me
I work as a generalist—understanding problems holistically and contributing across technology, education, community building, and public systems.
My strength is connecting ideas across disciplines: bridging technology with people, academia with industry, strategy with execution. I thrive in ambiguous environments, bringing clarity and momentum to early-stage ideas.

Selected Work
📱
Education & Community Platforms
Designed and implemented platforms for student onboarding, attendance tracking, event management, and certificate generation—used across multiple colleges and large-scale programs.
🤖
AI & Data-Driven Projects
Worked on applied AI use cases including chatbots, agricultural monitoring systems, and data-driven insights using open datasets, sensors, and APIs.
🏛️
Civic-Tech & Public Interest
Explored and prototyped technology use cases in governance, agriculture, water monitoring, tourism, and municipal systems—with focus on feasibility and real-world constraints.
🎯
Events, Hackathons & Programs
Planned and executed multi-day hackathons, skill sprints, faculty development programs, and student challenges—with emphasis on learning outcomes and long-term impact.
How I Add Value
Translate ideas between technical and non-technical stakeholders
Quickly adapt to new domains and tools
Identify connections across systems and disciplines
Balance big-picture thinking with execution
Build structure and clarity in uncertain environments
"Specialists go deep in one area.
Generalists connect across many."
I enjoy working where things are still evolving—where clarity, coordination, and thoughtful execution matter more than rigid titles or predefined roles.
Let's Connect
If you're looking for someone who can understand complex systems, work across disciplines, and help move ideas from concept to execution—I'd be glad to connect.
