About Me

I am a full-stack developer with a strong passion for artificial intelligence and its potential to transform user experiences. I specialize in integrating advanced AI technologies like Gemini AI and Vapi into web applications, leveraging frameworks such as React, Next.js, and the MERN stack to build intelligent, personalized, and interactive solutions.

In addition to my AI work, I have extensive experience developing real-time chat applications using tools like Socket.io and Convex. I excel at creating responsive user interfaces with TailwindCSS, Daisy UI, and Shadcn UI, managing state with Zustand, and building secure, scalable backends with Express.js, JWT, Clerk, MongoDB, and Mongoose. My focus is on delivering robust, cloud-deployed solutions that enable seamless, real-time communication and exceptional user engagement.

I enjoy solving complex problems, learning new technologies, and continuously improving my skills in software development. I am always on the lookout for new opportunities to grow and contribute to innovative projects.
