A bit about me

Originally from Kerala, now settled in Melbourne. I'm the kind of person who enjoys a well-named folder, a script that quietly does its job, and a bike ride along the Yarra. Nothing fancy — I just like it when things work properly.

By day I'm a technology consultant at OpenText. Outside of work I build small tools and automations — usually because some manual task was bugging me — and write about what I pick up along the way.
