I thrive on solving intricate technical challenges and delivering reliable solutions that drive business value.

Currently, I am also pursuing a Master’s in Financial Technology at the University of Wollongong (UOW), Gift City Campus, India. This program allows me to dive deep into the intersection of technology and finance, exploring areas like blockchain, digital payments, AI in finance, and financial modeling. It’s a perfect complement to my professional experience, providing me with a comprehensive understanding of the financial domain and its evolving technological landscape.

Over the years, I’ve developed expertise in backend technologies, including Java, Spring Boot, and RESTful services. My experience also extends to working with databases, cloud infrastructure, and DevOps practices, ensuring that the solutions I create are both efficient and future-proof.

I’m passionate about innovation and continuously strive to expand my skill set. Staying updated with industry trends is a priority for me, whether it’s by exploring emerging technologies or participating in discussions within the tech community.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."
