I am an incoming undergraduate computer science student at IIIT Hyderabad. I have contributed 400+ issues/PRs across 30+ repositories over the past seven years - starting with my first PR for Google Code-In when in 2018, to most recently working with MIT Media Lab’s Large Population Models (LPM) team on their AgentTorch project for differentiable agent based learning since April 2024.

I’m the co-maintainer for the popular node.js libraries express-rate-limit and express-slow-down used to shield servers from DDOS attacks, contributor to Serve, Refined Github, FPM, Beckn, Sunbird Registries and Credentials, and have created projects such as Dabbu (a knowledge platform), office-text-extractor, as well as yeet (a package manager for Arch Linux), amongst others. I participated in the national ONDC Grand Hackathon in 2022 and my team won a special mention award. I was also invited to give a talk titled 'A 12 Grader's Journey to Opensource Contribution via Sunbird and Beckn' at the Sunbird DPG Tech Fusion Conference in 2024.
