building Snazzl — quick commerce for fashion
full-stack dev, AI/ML student at Woxsen, and former national level swimmer with 50+ medals. i like building things that actually help people.
about me
so here's the thing — i've always been someone who can't sit still. started swimming competitively when i was young, competed at the national level, and racked up 50+ medals including 30+ golds. learned that discipline and showing up every day actually works.
now i channel that same energy into building stuff. currently co-founding Snazzl — we're trying to fix how people shop for fashion online. think quick commerce meets "try before you buy." it's chaotic, it's hard, and i love it.
when i'm not coding or figuring out startup stuff, you'll find me making youtube videos about travel and university life, or deep in some AI/ML rabbit hole at Woxsen University. i genuinely believe tech should make life easier, not more complicated.

what i can help with
services
i build things for the web and mobile. here's what i'm good at.
web development
full-stack apps with react/next.js and convex. clean code, fast sites.
mobile apps
cross-platform apps with react native. one codebase, both platforms.
AI Agents
designing and deploying end-to-end AI agents that never hallucinate
UI/UX design
figma designs that actually make sense. user-first, always.
backend & databases
convex and clerk setup. auth, storage, the whole thing.
video editing
davinci resolve for youtube content. travel vlogs, tutorials, whatever.
have a project in mind?
let's talkthings i've built
other stuff
YouTube Channel
Travel vlogs and university life content. Learning video editing and storytelling along the way.
Emotion Detection AI
Deep learning models for understanding human emotions. Academic project that got me hooked on AI.
AI Agents Platform
Experimenting with autonomous AI agents for task automation. Still figuring this one out.
the journey so far
competitive swimming
trained at LB Stadium, learned discipline the hard way. 30+ gold medals later, i realized showing up every day actually works.
started university
began my B.Tech in AI & Machine Learning. finally getting to understand how the tech i use actually works.
full-stack development
went from 'what is react' to building actual apps people use. the learning curve was steep but worth it.
co-founded snazzl
took the leap into entrepreneurship. building something from scratch is terrifying and exciting at the same time.
content creation
documenting the journey through travel vlogs and tech content. still figuring out the youtube algorithm.
currently focused on
scaling Snazzl, finishing my degree, and trying to post more consistently on YouTube. (the last one is the hardest)
let's connect
got an idea? want to collaborate? or just want to say hi?
i'm always open to interesting conversations and new opportunities. whether it's about startups, tech, or anything else — drop me a message.
