Career Summary
Gen AI Specialist | UI Architect
I'm a Gen AI Specialist and UI Architect with 17+ years of experience building scalable UI systems, modern web applications, and AI-driven product experiences. I work with React.js, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Supabase, and Generative AI tools to deliver fast, clean, and user-friendly digital products.
Platforms at Scale
My career spans enterprise platforms and high-traffic consumer products. Through LTIMindtree, I supported Microsoft and EY as client engagements. Earlier, through TSSS Infotech, I delivered marketplace experiences for Ebates and Rakuten and digital safety products for Aura across multiple regions.
Products People Use Daily
More recently, I've led frontend engineering for digital safety and VPN products—including Aura, Hotspot Shield, and VPN Super—shipping polished experiences across web, mobile, desktop, and TV. I combine design-system thinking, performance discipline, and practical AI integration to help teams ship scalable, accessible products built for real users.
