Co-founded REKRAFT (Oct 2025 – Mar 2026) — my first real venture. Simultaneously completed an AI/ML internship at Technokraft and served as Secretary of the Skill Up Club. Completed full-stack software development internship at Fortech Media & Marketing, engineering enterprise platforms and CRM solutions while in my final year of B.E. Computer Engineering.

Second and third year were transformative. Dove deep into full-stack engineering, core CS fundamentals, and started building real systems — not just assignments. Focused on database engineering, distributed architectures, and deep AI/ML integration. Every project taught me something assignments never could.

Entered PVGCOE's Computer Engineering program. First year was a firehose — C, C++, Data Structures, and the realization that building software is an art form. Wrote my first real program, got my first error, stayed up fixing it, and loved every second. The builder in me woke up.

Complete HSC with a focus on Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science. The JEE prep sharpened my logical thinking and problem-solving instincts in ways no classroom could. Made the decisive choice — Computer Engineering. Not just a degree, but a direction.

Scored well in SSC boards and chose the Science stream — not because everyone did, but because computers had already started pulling me in. My first interaction with a computer wasn't just curiosity, it was a calling. I didn't know it yet, but the path was already forming.
