I ventured into the world of software engineering after drawing inspiration from successful entrepreneurs who followed a distinct pattern: they began as software engineers and then tackled real-world problems head-on. But now software engineering is deep-seated passion.

My Philosophy: I'm a software engineer who firmly believes that programming languages and frameworks are nothing more than tools in our arsenal, meant to bring ideas to life. In my view, an engineer should never be constrained by their tools. As Steve Jobs famously said, 'You can't start with technologies (tools) and find where you're going to sell (what problem to solve); you have to start with the customer experience (problem) and work back to the required technology or tools to address the problem.'

My Strength: I consider my true skill as an engineer to be my unwavering determination and ability to swiftly master new tools, frameworks, or libraries. I thrive on collaboration, working seamlessly with others to achieve shared goals and solve complex problems.

Joining Forces: If you're engaged in an exciting project and require a versatile and committed team member, rest assured, I'm one of the individuals you need. Don't hesitate to reach out.

Community Engagement: I hold community building, development, and participation in high regard. I actively engage in activities that contribute to community growth and well-being.

I really love understanding what goes into the implementation of different tools ranging from programming languages, libraries and framework. I do write on hashnode, tweet my discoveries about an implementation on twitter and sometimes post videos on youtube.

Here are some of the tools I've had hands-on experience with, either in projects or open-source contributions:

Languages - C++, C, Python, JavaScript, Matlab, HTML, CSS, Shell Scripting Libraries - React, Langchain, NumPy, Panda, Matplotlib Other Tools - Git, GitHub, Phabricator, Linux, Bash Java For DSA

Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate or exchange insights. I look forward to engaging with fellow professionals who share my enthusiasm for problem-solving, innovation, and community development.
