Electrical engineer
Programming enthusiast
Seven years ago, I came to know of a guy's crazy master plan to change the fate of the world with his startup car company and I lost my mind! But, I knew he was right! "Can I make the world better, too?", I contemplated. So, with a goal in mind I dropped out of a premier architecture school to pursue bachelors in electrical engineering.
I pushed myself even further to move to USA and graduate with a masters from Purdue. Here, while working on the Crowd-powered systems course, I realized how crucial programming is - with it's know-how, one could build anything and all they'd need is a computer. I got hooked and my journey as a programmer began. Being open-minded, I have a desire to acquire new skills. These days, I'm excited to learn PHP and contribute to the open source community.
When I'm not working on stuff, I like to cook for pleasure. I grew up cooking around my family & would love the delicious home-cooked meals my mom (or) grandma made. You will too, if you'd try!

Some of my projects..
Date: May 2016
What happens when you watch too many cooking shows? I don't know about you but I ended up making a cheap alternative tech like this that might accomplish the same work, a commercial and expensive one does!
Me and my friend Lakshman, who is an awesome coder and a great team player built a touch-based GUI based Point of Sale system setup using just two Raspberry Pis and nothing else. As part of Embedded systems course, we started from scratch and finished it in less than a week. We were able to display the menu, note the order details, send up billing info and store all the customer records in a database. If you know some Python, TKinter, SQLite you can build this yourself. To know how, refer to the project's code at the link below.
Let's keep in touch. I'll be happy to know if I can help you with anything you see on here.
