☁ AWS Cloud 📊 Power BI 🐍 Python 🗃 SQL Expert 🧠 ML / AI

I'm a Software Engineer & Data Analyst at ZS Associates with a passion for building scalable software, data infrastructure, and BI solutions that drive real business outcomes.

With a background in Computer Science (CGPA 9.49/10, MSIT 2023), I specialize in full-stack development, ETL pipeline automation, cloud data engineering on AWS, and crafting Power BI / Tableau dashboards for pharma enterprise clients.

Beyond my day job, I've built and deployed impactful products — including a Keycloak-based SSO & Identity platform, an Open edX e-learning platform, an NIELIT-backed EdTech site, and an AI-powered agricultural drone analytics system. I love bridging software engineering with real-world impact.
