About me

A dynamic Software Engineer 👨‍💻 with 1.2+ years of hands-on expertise in crafting robust backend software solutions in Python(Django) and Java(Spring Boot). Currently building ClearHisab, an invoicing SaaS, in Next.js, with 2 active customers.

I enjoy learning and exploring about Software Engineering and Entrepreneurship.

I strongly believe in < The process is also important, as much as the outcome > and that exactly reflects my personality.
