About Me

Full-stack developer, backend-first.

I'm a Laravel and PHP developer with 2+ years of professional experience across three companies, building everything from learning management systems to hospital administration portals. My work sits mostly on the backend — REST APIs, MySQL schema design, and Blade-driven admin panels — but I take projects from local development through to live deployment on cPanel-managed hosting.

Alongside client work, I'm completing my Intermediate in Computer Science with a statistics focus at TIPS Group of Colleges — a foundation that shapes how I think about data-heavy features like reporting dashboards and inventory analytics.

When I'm not shipping features, I'm usually reviewing Laravel release notes, experimenting with query optimization, or helping teammates debug tricky Eloquent relationships. I care about clean, maintainable code and systems that are easy to hand off — not clever one-liners that nobody can read six months later.

Technologies I work with

The languages, frameworks, and tools I reach for daily — from server-side logic to the deployment pipeline.

Organized by where they sit in my workflow — from the database layer up to deployment. Each card shows my comfort level with that tool.

How I Work

My development process

A clear, repeatable workflow that takes a feature from idea to production without surprises.

01 / DISCOVER

Requirements

I start by understanding the problem — what the system needs to do, who uses it, and what success looks like.

02 / DESIGN

Architecture

Database schema, API routes, and controller structure planned out before a single line of production code is written.

03 / BUILD

Development

Iterative development with clean migrations, tested endpoints, and Blade views — committed often and reviewed.

04 / SHIP

Deploy & Support

Deployment to cPanel, environment checks, and post-launch monitoring — then ongoing fixes and improvements.

Academic background

Intermediate in Computer Science — Statistics

TIPS Group of Colleges
Currently completing ICS with a statistics concentration, balancing coursework alongside professional development work — a combination that feeds directly into data-driven feature work like reporting and analytics.
Beyond Code

Hobbies & interests

What I'm learning and exploring when I step away from client work — the pursuits that keep me curious and shape how I think about technology.

🤖
Currently Learning

AI Engineering

I'm actively learning AI engineering — diving into how large language models work, prompt design, embeddings, and how to wire AI into real applications. My goal is to bring intelligent features like semantic search, smart recommendations, and automated content generation into the Laravel systems I build. It's the space where my backend skills and my statistics background meet something genuinely new.

Data & Statistics

My ICS statistics concentration turned into a genuine interest — I enjoy digging into datasets, spotting patterns, and turning raw numbers into dashboards that actually tell a story. It's the thinking behind every reporting feature I build.

Reading & Self-Learning

I read technical blogs, Laravel release notes, and engineering books in my downtime. Staying current with framework changes and best practices isn't a chore — it's how I keep my work from going stale and find ideas worth trying on real projects.

Problem Solving & Games

Strategy games and logic puzzles are my way of unwinding — they scratch the same itch as debugging a tricky Eloquent relationship or designing a clean database schema. Keeps the problem-solving muscles warm outside of work hours.

Fitness & Cricket

I try to stay active with regular workouts and weekend cricket with friends. Long debugging sessions are easier after time away from the screen — a clear head ships better code than a tired one.

Open Source & Community

I follow open-source Laravel packages, study how maintainers structure their code, and contribute small fixes where I can. Reading other people's codebases is one of the fastest ways to level up your own.
