Most people watch a film. AtmosSync lets a room feel it. AtmosSync is a Chrome extension that pre-computes an emotion timeline from subtitle files and syncs dynamic lighting effects and particle systems to on-screen video in real time. The architecture's defensible edge: compute once, play back instantly. No frame-by-frame processing lag. No latency. Pure ambience, perfectly timed. Built solo with limited prior JavaScript experience, using AI-assisted development workflows, because the best reason to learn something is that you need it to exist. Independently conceived, built, and shipped a working Chrome extension from the ground up Produced the full product narrative, Experience and About page copy, investor outreach emails, and a PowerPoint pitch deck Architected the "pre-compute once" model that separates AtmosSync from any real-time competitor

There are 70 million sign language users in India. Most of the world was not built to hear them. Express is a real-time AI-driven sign language translation platform that changes that. A Python vision engine powered by Flask, OpenCV, MediaPipe, and TFLite reads 21 spatial hand landmarks per frame at sub-30ms latency. When a gesture crosses a 0.85 confidence threshold, it is published instantly to a state endpoint. A Next.js 14 frontend polls every 300ms and streams the translation character by character into a live caption bar the way words feel when they are truly arriving. A Speech output function (Web Speech API) reads the translation aloud, so a signed gesture can be heard across a room. One camera. No interpreter. No delay. No loss. The interface is a single workspace: camera filling the viewport, translated text in the lower third, three controls at the bottom, Space, Clear, and Speech. Everything visible at once. Nothing between the user and being understood. Independently designed and shipped the full system, frontend, backend, and ML pipeline — solo, using AI-assisted development tools (Gemini, Windsurf) with no formal engineering background Wrote the complete launch suite: technical README, landing page narrative, LinkedIn post series, and investor pitch deck Built entirely open source, MIT licensed, because access should not be a privilege Your hands have always had a voice. We just made sure the world could hear it.

At Jeba Caters, I worked across marketing, brand, content, operations, and finance simultaneously, the kind of cross-functional exposure that only happens in a small business where the walls between departments don't exist yet.

Skillpix began with ₹20,000, two people, and a conviction that government school students in Tamil Nadu deserved better learning tools. I led everything that faced outward brand strategy, go-to-market outreach, investor relations, and the pitch itself. I walked into over 100 government schools and institutions across Tamil Nadu. Not with a deck sent by email, in person, follow-up by follow-up. 85 of them said yes. That number matters not because of the percentage, but because of what it represents: a product no one had seen, pitched by someone who believed in it more than anyone else in the room.

About

I have spent my career turning conviction into execution. As a student, I won a National Award for a film because I believed a story deserved to be told. I introduced an unfamiliar product to over 100 government schools and secured partnerships with 85 of them through trust, strategy, and persistence. With nothing more than a box of puppets and a vision, I designed a language curriculum that inspired over 200 children to embrace learning. One encounter changed the way I thought about technology. After meeting a deaf student whose words I couldn't understand, I built Express, a real-time AI-powered sign language translation platform, because accessibility should never depend on circumstance. I co founded an EdTech venture with just ₹20,000, building teams, products, brands, and research from the ground up. As a Marketing Consultant at Brain Boosters, I drove 275% growth in social media presence by combining strategic storytelling with data driven execution. As of now, I work as a Technical Business Development Executive at JANE Aerospace, I work with global clients across Aerospace, Oil & Gas, OEMs, Heavy Engineering, Electronics, and Industrial Supply Chains, translating complex technical capabilities into commercial partnerships and long-term business growth. I don't define myself by the number of roles I've held, but by the problems I've chosen to solve. Across technology, business development, marketing, and entrepreneurship, one principle has remained constant: I don't wait for opportunities, I build them.
