About

Have mostly worked across early to growth stage companies for the last 10 years, focused on Big Data, data engineering, AI, and machine learning. Learning and working on challenging problems that I can find out of the box solutions in terms of technology is what I enjoy! Throw me a complex problem, and I will solve it lazily but perfectly 🙂
