About
A little bit about me

I spend my days in the world of cloud, data, and advertising tech, and my evenings with cricket, books, and food.

I enjoy solving complex problems with data, building things that scale, and turning messy ideas into something structured and useful. When I’m not doing that, you’ll probably find me practising cover drives, experimenting in the kitchen, or reading something that has nothing to do with work.

Hobbies
Things I genuinely enjoy
Tap a card to expand
Cricket
From pro-level matches to casual weekend nets.
🏏 Favourite shot: cover drive
I love both playing and watching cricket. I enjoy the strategy, the small battles within each over, and how a game can flip in just a few deliveries.
Reading
Mix of non-fiction, tech, and random curiosities.
📚 Current reading streak goals
I like books that either teach me something concrete or change how I look at the world: tech, psychology, biographies, and the occasional novel to reset my brain.
Cooking
Comfort food + experimental recipes.
🍳 Favourite mood: slow-cooking on weekends
I enjoy trying recipes from different cuisines and then tweaking them to my taste. Cooking is a nice contrast to tech: immediate feedback and you (usually) get a good meal.
Tech Tinkering
Side projects in cloud, data, and automation.
⚙️ Little experiments, big learnings
I like trying out new tools, building small utilities, and playing with data to see what interesting patterns show up.

Favourites
Some things I keep coming back to
Books / Ideas
  • BOOK Titles that change how you look at thinking, habits, or systems.
  • IDEA Anything that connects tech to real-world impact.
On screen
  • SPORT Close cricket finishes and long test matches.
  • COMFORT Light comedies / series that don’t require overthinking.
Now
What I’m doing these days
  • Exploring new things in cloud, data, and AI.
  • Working on fitness and consistency (on and off the cricket field).
  • Trying to cook more often instead of defaulting to delivery.
  • Keeping a small list of “things I learned this week”.
