What I've built

At my first internship, at Vardhman Electricals, I built Vardhman Saathi end to end: a rewards app for the company's dealers, made of an Android app on Google Play, a desktop app for their staff and the backend behind both. More than 200 people use it at the same time, and it runs for $0 a month. The full story.

Now I'm a Software Engineering Intern at Meant2Bae, and as a freelancer I'm building ScreenDemons, an app that cuts screen time through challenges with friends. On the side I'm building AnyStudio in Rust: describe an app or drag it together, and get a real native Android and iPhone app.

I also like rebuilding things to see how they work. Webelo is the part of a browser that understands a web page, written in C++ from the WHATWG spec. Every project is here.

Open source

While working on a Django ticket, I found a confusing template error nobody had reported. I reported it as ticket #36271, fixed it, and Django Fellow Sarah Boyce merged the fix as pull request #19295 in March 2025. How it happened.
