01 — About

More than just a developer.

BASED  LUCKNOW, INDIA

I'm a Computer Science & Engineering student specializing in Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning at Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti Language University, Lucknow. I'm curious about what happens beneath the screen—how software works, how systems communicate, and how AI can become something practical.

I learn by experimenting: building, breaking, debugging, and rebuilding until I understand the thing better.

Dev Diaries

Long-form notes about what I build, what breaks, what I learn, and what I discover.

04 — Journey

Not a straight line.

EDUCATION

B.Tech — CSE, AI & ML

Building a strong foundation in computer science while going beyond coursework through hands-on experiments.

BUILDING

From code to systems

Moving from development into Linux, servers, networking, automation and self-hosting.

EXPLORING

AI + infrastructure

Combining local AI, open-source models and systems thinking into practical projects.

NEXT

Bigger experiments

Keep learning. Keep building. Turn more ideas into real products and useful systems.

05 — Beyond Code

There's more to me than technology.

🏋️ Fitness

Regular home strength training and a practical approach to staying active.

🐕 Offline time

Quality time away from screens, including time with my white Labrador Retriever.

🧠 Curiosity

I enjoy going down technical rabbit holes simply because I want to understand them.

🌱 Growth

Learning is a continuous process—especially when you build instead of only watching.

AI

Building My Local AI Assistant

DEV DIARY · 8 min read

Why local models, voice and vision are interesting—and what changed once the AI stack moved onto my own machine.

Systems

Turning a Machine Into a Home Server

DEV DIARY · 7 min read

Notes from exploring Linux, Docker, CasaOS and Tailscale while learning to think about the whole system.

09 — Philosophy
“Build it. Break it. Understand it. Build it better.”

I don't believe in waiting until I know everything. I learn by trying, failing, fixing and building again.
