📍 Where I Am
I’m currently based in Seoul, South Korea and Karaikudi, India. I spend 1-2 months in each location.
📚 What I’m Learning
- Speaking fluently in Korean
- Building simple tools with Arduino
💼 What I’m Working On
I’m the FP&A Lead at a Fast Fashion Company in Korea and also run a hydroponic smart farm in India. On the side, I’m building:
- An AI Feynman type Tutor based on whiteboard
- A Flutter app to improve mental math skills
- A Python library for financial analysis focused on FP&A
- A Python Script to summarize Hacker News Comments.
💡 What I’m Thinking About
- Unsexy Industries with low productivity in India and ways technology can make them more efficient.
- Building in public and contributing to open-source.
- Apps that are offline-first and require no registration.
- Hardware manufacturing in small batches.
- China’s future generation that is STEM focused with a strong work ethic VS the rest of the world that is distracted with social media, entertainment, politics and creating dance videos in TikTok.
🏋️♂️ Personal Goals
I’m focused on improving my fitness and recovery, aiming to:
- Bring my resting heart rate to the early 40s.
- Improve my VO2 Max through workout, diet, and sleep.
- Clock at least 1000 km in biking and 500 km in running.
