I'm a software developer at Broadridge, passionate about building scalable and reliable backend systems. I work mainly with Node.js,PostgreSQL, and Docker β€” and I love turning complex problems into clean, production-ready solutions.

About Me

My Journey

My Journey

I'm a passionate Software Developer currently working at Broadridge in the Digital Asset and Solution (DAS) team, where we provide end-to-end solutions for managing digital assets like crypto, tokenized securities, and blockchain-based services.

I love turning complex problems into clean, efficient solutions β€” whether it's improving performance, building APIs, or scaling backend infrastructure. Clean code and thoughtful design are at the core of my engineering approach.

Outside of work, you'll find me solving chess puzzles, contributing to open-source, or speed-typing at 70+ WPM. I’m a lifelong learner, always curious and excited about what’s next in tech.
