My Journey
I’m a passionate Software Engineer Intern based in Sri Lanka, driven by the endless possibilities of technology and its power to transform ideas into reality. My journey began with curiosity about how things work behind the screen, which evolved into a deep love for creating intelligent, user-centric solutions.
With over 3 years of experience and 25+ projects under my belt, I specialize in full-stack development with a particular focus on modern web technologies. I believe in writing clean, scalable code that not only solves problems but creates delightful user experiences.
When I’m not coding, you’ll find me exploring the latest AI innovations, contributing to open-source projects, or sharing my insights through technical writing on Medium.
