Building things
that actually work.

Hey! I'm a third-year CS student at PES University, Bangalore, specialising in Cybersecurity & Connected Systems. I spend most of my time breaking distributed systems to understand why they work, and occasionally building ones that actually do.

I'm drawn to the intersection of systems thinking and real-world engineering — from consensus protocols and container orchestration to cryptography and network security. I like things that are precise, resilient, and a little bit clever.

Fun fact: I once debugged a RAFT consensus election loop at 2am and it felt like solving a puzzle box blindfolded.

Things I've shipped.

Distributed Systems

Mini-RAFT Collaborative Board

A real-time distributed drawing board built on a custom RAFT consensus protocol. Multiple nodes elect a leader, replicate drawing state, and stay consistent even when nodes fail.

Security

Multimodal Deepfake Detector

Deep learning system combining MobileNetV2 (video) and CNN (audio) encoders to detect deepfakes in the FakeAVCeleb v1.2 dataset. Includes Grad-CAM explainability visualisations.

Side Projects & Research

Building distributed systems, deepfake detection models, cryptographic tools, and cloud pipelines — mostly because the problems are interesting and the debugging is humbling.

Life beyond the terminal.

🏔️

Nature & Mountains

Born in Lalbazar, Srinagar. Kashmir didn't just give me a hometown — it gave me a lifelong obsession with mountains, rivers, and the kind of silence you only find in the Himalayas.

Travel & Exploration

I collect experiences the way others collect stamps. Every new place rewires how I think — about people, systems, and what actually matters. Bangalore taught me hustle. Kashmir keeps me grounded.

Geopolitics & Media

I read foreign policy briefings the way some people read sports scores. Especially interested in Middle Eastern affairs, power dynamics, and how media narratives are constructed — and who benefits.

Building for Fun

Side projects that have no business case. Tools I build because the problem bugs me. The occasional 2am debugging session that feels weirdly satisfying when it finally clicks.
