My journey

From a bank teller’s desk to architecting AI systems.

I work across software architecture, fullstack engineering, and applied AI — and I’ve built an independent training and consulting practice alongside it. This is the path, not just the résumé.

The practice

Build. Understand.
Pass it on.

My professional work has taken me through web applications, payments, industrial monitoring, cloud platforms, and AI systems. That variety shapes my approach: understand the business problem, make the boundaries clear, and build something the team can maintain.

Alongside engineering, my CV records weekend training and mentorship through APPNEURAL from October 2021. I teach through projects, architecture discussions, and practical feedback.

Based in Udaipur, Rajasthan, I welcome enquiries for remote consulting, team workshops, and individual mentorship.

A turning point

Building something of my own,
on top of a full-time role.

Running APPNEURAL alongside a senior engineering career means the same trade-off every founder on the side recognises: limited hours, and a choice about where they go each week. It has meant saying no to some things, teaching on weekends, and building a practice slowly rather than all at once.

It has also kept my consulting and training grounded — every architecture review and workshop is informed by a full-time role solving the same class of problems, not a practice run separately from real engineering work.
