About

I have been intrigued with computers and programming since it got first introduced in school, and have been on a learning conquest since then.

Programming always presents a fresh perspective, no matter how many times you have solved the same problem.

I started with C to learn the concepts, got introduced to Ruby to strengthen my love and passion, and eventually found Elixir — and fell in love with it.

These days I work at the intersection of AI and distributed systems — building LLM-powered agents, thinking about eval frameworks, and figuring out how Elixir makes all of it more reliable.

Areas of interest

• LLM evals and agent architectures
• Distributed systems and microservices
• Alternate architectures (CQRS/ES, Trailblazer)
• Back-end programming, infrastructure, and DevOps

Background

Application Architect at WatermarkInsights, with over 19 years solving engineering problems — mostly in Elixir and Ruby, increasingly with AI systems.

I blog and tweet my learnings to share and get critiqued.

I love playing badminton 🏸 and spending time with family.
