About Me

I'm a Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in Python, Django, Angular, SQL, and Azure Cloud. I build scalable, real-time web applications with clean architecture, reliable backend systems, and modern UI experiences.

I enjoy solving complex problems through thoughtful engineering: integrating secure REST APIs, optimizing databases, and applying cloud-native design to drive performance at scale. My experience spans enterprise solutions like stock-market monitoring applications, eCommerce platforms, and real-time news systems.

Currently working as an Trainee Software Engineer at MASTEK, where I’m continuously enhancing my expertise in AI & ML, cloud deployments, system reliability, and production-grade application development.
