A bit about me
I started my career building mobile apps — over 15 of them. React Native, Flutter, a bit of native. I spent years obsessing over pixels, gestures, and buttery-smooth UIs for clients across the US, Sweden, and Nepal.
Then somewhere around 2023, I caught the cloud bug. I started tinkering with AWS, fell down the serverless rabbit hole, and haven't looked back. Today I split my time between building enterprise mobile apps at Teksewa and designing cloud-native AI systems for Himalayan Nirvana Resort.
What drives me? Building things that actually work for real people. Not just clever code — but tools that make a hotel run smoother, a guest feel welcome, or a government inspector do their job better.
