Lil bit about me
GeneralistSoftware Engineer & Researcher. Currently at Wells Fargo, working on Debt Capital Market platforms. I explore Agentic AI systems and implement them in my free time.
From research to real systems - That's my engineering way. I love to understand the underlying fundamental principles and building from bottom up. I also aim to be a Full Stack Engineer - NO HOLD UP!!! not the MERN stack kinda guy but rather someone who understands the entire AI stack from chip architecture to GPU programming right from distributed training of LLMs upto there distributed deployment and efficient inference (including on edge devices). This is the Goal I try to work towards daily trying to be a bit better everyday.
Previously shipped Second Brain pipelines at NeoSapien, built classical ML models and speech-to-text infrastructure, and won the SUI Overflow 2025 hackathon. Connect with me on LinkedIn or X or just drop me an email for work or collab.
I love exploring different stuff. Philosophy, Literature, Anime, Webtoons and (irregularly)Gym take up a major chunk of my time too.
