👨‍💻 Software Developer & Part-Time Foodie

📍 Visnagar, India 🇮🇳

Welcome to my corner of the web! I'm an undergraduate in Electrical Engineering at IIT (BHU), Varanasi, where I spend my time navigating the worlds of development, competitive programming, and the occasional debugging spiral.
When I'm not building web apps with React, Next.js, and MongoDB, you’ll find me solving problems on Codeforces and LeetCode, experimenting with new technologies, or losing track of time in a good movie.

  • Leet-Search

    Leet-Search is a semantic search engine for LeetCode that helps you find problems by meaning, not just keywords. Whether you're tackling an OA or trying to recall a vaguely familiar problem, Leet-Search understands your intent — even if you don't remember exact titles. It uses embeddings to deliver accurate, context-aware results.

My Journey

My journey has been shaped by embracing every opportunity to learn and grow. Each step has offered valuable lessons, and I strive to make the most of every experience along the way.

  • Schooling

    Although I'm originally from Visnagar, a quiet and close-knit town in Gujarat. I completed my schooling in Mehsana and later moved to Ahmedabad to pursue my preparation for the IIT-JEE.
    Until class 10, I actively balanced academics with co-curricular activities, excelling in both. During my JEE preparation, I was fully immersed in the process, dedicating myself to securing a strong rank and building the foundation for a career in engineering.

  • College

    Illustration representing college graduation
    I joined the Indian Institute of Technology (BHU), Varanasi, to pursue Electrical Engineering. While my core curriculum was centered around electrical concepts, I developed a strong interest in computer science and software development.
    Despite the demanding academic schedule, I consistently carved out time to explore programming, starting right from my first year. With the support of incredible seniors and peers, I dove into coding, projects, and open-source contributions alongside my core coursework. Balancing both fields has been a rewarding challenge.

  • Web Developer

    Illustration representing web development job
    I got aware of Web Development in the winter break of the first semester under COPS Winter of Code. I started by learning the basics of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and soon found myself fascinated by how code could bring ideas to life on the web. I continued learning more about Frontend Responsive Design and then deep-dived into Backend in Summer 2022. Since then, I have been exponentially increasing my knowledge about various frameworks and their usage alongside expanding the span of my tech stack.
