Building for real humans, at founder speed

I grew up in India with curiosity wired deep — how electricity moves, how software scales, how a great talk can flip someone's trajectory. That curiosity became a career in data, then full stack, then leadership with skin in the game. Today I'm in Berlin earning an MSc in AI while shipping Vocaa — because language learners deserve real conversation, not another chatbot cosplay.

The story arc

I studied Electrical and Electronics Engineering at CUSAT in Kerala — a foundation in systems thinking that still shapes how I architect products.

My first role was as a Data Analyst, then I moved into full stack development at PGTech in Chandigarh, shipping features across the stack and learning how consultancies move under pressure.

At Pashi Technology I stepped up as Technical Head & Full Stack Developer with a partnership stake — owning delivery, mentoring engineers, and aligning tech with revenue.

Berlin came next: an MSc in Artificial Intelligence at BSBI, and the decision to found Vocaa — a real-time language practice platform pairing humans in seconds, built on a modern stack from mobile to WebRTC to LLM-assisted tooling where it truly helps.

Mission: build products that solve tangible human problems — education, belonging, access — not vanity demos. The pipeline includes more AI-native startups, each with the same bar: would I be proud if my younger self relied on this?

Off-keyboard, I care about public speaking and student mentorship — 20+ seminars across institutions in India on tech, AI, and motivation, because the next generation deserves both skill and belief.
