About

Engineer. Founder. Teacher.

I'm a Solutions Engineer at Infotech, where I sit between customers and engineering — scoping, prototyping, and shipping AI into a production enterprise stack.

I co-created a suite of AI tools that sped our team's work up by 50%, automated client legacy-to-Oracle migrations with the Claude API, and partnered with a teammate to build the prompt-engineering environment that doubled our productivity.

Before engineering, I built things from zero: the first and top online Mridanga school in the world, and LiveGreen — an app later featured on the iOS App Store. That founder background is why I'm at home owning a room, a roadmap, or a customer relationship.

B.S. Computer Science, University of Florida (3.9). Applied Data Science certificate, MIT (4.0).

Highlights

Things I've shipped

AI tool suite @ Infotech

Co-created internal AI tooling adopted by the whole team — 50% faster delivery, better reliability, fewer escalations. Built on the Claude API inside a legacy Oracle stack.

#1

New Release on Amazon — first-ever Mridanga instruction book (then category Best Seller)

🍏

Co-founded LiveGreen — later featured on the iOS App Store (Earth Day 2019)

Claude-powered migration automation

Multi-step agentic automation that maps client legacy data into a modern Oracle environment — replacing the most repetitive engineer-hours per migration.

Featured project

Customer-Support Triage Agent

An open-source multi-step agentic workflow: it classifies a ticket, retrieves grounded context from a Chroma vector store (RAG), drafts a reply, and evaluates its own confidence before sending — escalating to a human when it isn't sure. Vague tickets route to a ReAct sub-agent that gathers context with tools first. Every node emits a LangSmith trace.

The story

From rhythm to systems

2017 — 2021 · Founder

Mridanga Studios

Founded the first and top online school for the Mridanga — an Indian classical drum. 250+ students worldwide, six books, a Udemy course, 400k+ YouTube views, and a team of student instructors running 15–30 classes a week.

2017 — 2018 · Co-founder

LiveGreen

Designed the core experience of a sustainability app and negotiated its key data partnerships. The app was later featured on the iOS App Store for Earth Day 2019.

2020 — 2023 · B.S. Computer Science

University of Florida

3.9 GPA, Dean's List, and top of a 350+ student Computer Organization class. Built a Turing-complete language, a memory manager, and a client-edge-server network along the way.

2022 — now · Solutions Engineer

Infotech

Customer-facing engineering on enterprise legacy migrations — and the place where I started shipping production AI: Claude API automation, a team-wide AI tool suite, and a prompt-engineering environment that changed how we work.

2025 · Certificate

MIT — Applied Data Science

GPA 4.0. Doubled down on the ML foundations under the production AI work.
