About me

After graduating with a Masters degree in Computer Science, I pursued the Software Engineer career at Intel. However, I learned full-stack web development by doing passion-projects. My favorite part of software enginnering is the problem-solving aspect. I love the feeling of finally figuring out a solution to a problem.

I am currently building LessenText - a text summarization saas.

When I'm not coding, I enjoy playing video games, watching thriller movies. I also enjoy learning history of the old worlds.
