I grew up in Bangalore and currently live in Berlin, Germany. This website houses my select creations on the World Wide Web.

I am a manager turned software developer. I currently work as a Systems Quality Engineer. I help developers on my team take ownership of the quality of their code by providing them with modern test infrastructure, processes and the requisite coaching. Given my background, I often stray into engineering management or management consulting. You can find more details on my LinkedIn page.

I use the following 4 principles to choose what I work on:
  1. Improve ahead of innovate - explore the vast, but overlooked potential in improving existing constructs rather than adding new ones
  2. Subtract ahead of add - improve by subtracting rather than by adding
  3. Focus on crises ahead of utopias - diminish suffering rather than maximize pleasure
  4. Tackle neglected problems ahead of crowded problems - if somebody else is already solving a problem, thank them and move on
