I automate the boring stuff,
build what's missing,
and occasionally use an old Android phone as a server.

v2.2.0 Aug 2025 — present

Software Engineer  ·  Fidelity Investments

Full-stack. Modernising legacy Mainframe brokerage systems into microservices. The kind of engineer who'd rather spend an afternoon writing a script than do something manually twice. Also on the LEAP squad, mentoring interns — which feels odd because I was one recently.

Executive Graduate Trainee  ·  Fidelity Investments

First role out of college, same company. Engineered retry logic with exponential backoff for micro-deposits and contributed to infrastructure lifecycle management. Essentially: fixing things that looked fine on paper but quietly weren't.

Full Stack Engineering Intern  ·  Fidelity Investments

Two stints, seven months total. Built a Python automation tool that cut onboarding time for new joiners. Got comfortable with the stack, understood the culture, got an offer. Stayed.

B.Tech Information Science  ·  UVCE, Bengaluru

Four years of learning the theory behind things I was already building. Graduated with a CGPA of 8.94. Time to ship real things in the real world.

v0.1.0 origin

Human  ·  Silvassa, India

Born in Silvassa. Now split between Bengaluru and home. Still running the same core, just with more dependencies installed.

things I've shipped.

homeloan-calc ● live

Built because existing loan calculators were either too basic or required an Excel sheet I didn't want to maintain. Has prepayment analysis, amortization schedules, Indian tax benefits (80C & 24B), rent-vs-buy comparisons, and shareable links.

FMR India Excellence Award — Culture & Community Champion

Received the FMR India Excellence Award as Culture and Community Champion with the LEAP Alumni Core Team at Fidelity. Recognition for work done through the LEAP Learning and Development team — helping build the kind of environment I'd have wanted when I was starting out.

MultiGen ABRG Panel Discussion

Spoke on a panel at the launch of Fidelity India's Multigenerational Associate Business Resource Group. Topics: innovation across generations, reverse mentorship, unlearning and relearning. Interesting to be the youngest voice on a panel and realise that works both ways — I learned as much as I shared.

Home Loans in India Are Confusing — So I Built a Calculator

Most tools give you an EMI number and call it a day. That's not enough to make a ₹50 lakh decision.

LEAP Tuck & Tie Day 2026

Part of the team behind Tuck & Tie Day. From interns who didn't know how to tie a tie to professionals walking in suited and confident. The kind of event that's more work than it looks and more rewarding than you expect.

Networking & Engagement Session for New Interns

Was part of an interactive session for Fidelity's new intern cohort. The full-circle moment of being on the other side of a session I once sat in on as a nervous intern.
