About me

Hello! I'm a web designer and developer. I've built web-based tooling like tetra pack and folder-routing. Recently, I've found an unknown attraction towards building web services in Go. I wish to onboard the Go and HTMX hype train.

I have completed my Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering from Kamla Nehru Institute of Technology, Sultanpur. I graduated with an aggregate CGPA of 8.6. (Medium flex) My journey began during my school days when my computer teacher introduced me to algorithms and explained how computers can be helpful.

Machine Learning Engineer

I implemented a DCGAN (Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network) following the 2015 DCGAN paper by Alec Radford et al.. The Generator uses convolutional layers with batch normalization and ReLU activations, while the Discriminator uses LeakyReLU. I was impressed by how effectively the networks learned image patterns through adversarial training—essentially a game between two networks trying to outsmart each other.

Yes, I love flowers and truly appreciate their beauty.

Why not start by showcasing my exploratory skills with the Iris dataset? I've used Pandas, NumPy, Seaborn, and Scikit-learn to perform EDA, visualization, and model training on it. Datasets I've worked with for Linear Regression and Classification problems: Palmer Penguins, Iris Dataset and 80 Cereals Dataset. Here, some NLP problem notebooks: Twitter Sentiment Analysis. Also, the modern art of Neural Network displayed in MNIST digits dataset.

Challenge Architect

Do you like challenges? So do I. Here are a few for you to try like crack the nut and 100 days of code. Although the 100-day challenge is still a work in progress, you can get a taste of what it will offer from the website.

Pythonista

I adore python. Only the computer language! I've used it to do web scraping, building APIs and even for image processing. The bleach db, image algorithms and bf compiler are written in python. The simplicity of Python has captivated me for years. You can write Python as if you were reading English. Here are few lines from the zen of python one could also apply in their daily lives.

If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.

App Developer

Yes, I can also build mobile apps using React Native and Expo. I've built apps like feather, altar, and commit. Altar and Commit were great exercises for the mind, as I incorporated React Query for efficient queries, a mini design system for uniform designs across entire application, proper authentication and even animations. Commit is evolving rapidly, and I'm excited to turn it into a full-fledged app soon.

Web version of feather is also available here. However, it has limited set of features and capabilities.

Design Angle

I also design my own apps and website. Also, Figma is the fantastic tool for designing. Here are few designs I've made:

  1. Commit - A daily task management tool (Case Study)
  2. Altar - An Poetizer Alternative
  3. Portfolio Design

Asides

My top 3 albums right now!
I've spent the last few months listening to "Hurry Up Tomorrow" by The Weeknd, who recently announced that this will be his last album and that he'll be retiring his stage name. Man! The vocals on "HUT" are angelic—exemplary! Speaking of exemplary, Kendrick Lamar's growing influence and chance to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show are shining examples of his success.
"CHROMAKOPIA" is a great album. I spent all of November listening to Tyler. He really put out some great work for us to appreciate. 2024 was packed with great albums and projects.
This year, I've also spent most of my time listening to Kanye West. He's the GOAT, no doubt. "Flashing Lights" has been on repeat since last year. Then, Billie also dropped "Hit Me Hard and Soft," which was exactly the experience I needed to cure my winter blues. Finneas did a fantastic job with production.
