01. About Me

I'm a Python/Django Backend Developer with hands-on experience in backend development, REST APIs, automation, web scraping, stock-market data systems, AI integration, cloud deployment, and Next.js frontend integration.

I build practical, real-world systems involving NSE live stock data, trading dashboards, AI assistants, Telegram bots, scraping automation pipelines, and data-driven web applications deployed on Google Cloud and DigitalOcean.

Currently pursuing a BCA while actively freelancing — I bring both academic foundation and hands-on production experience. My strongest areas are Django backend development, REST API design, stock market data systems, web scraping, AI/LLM integration, and cloud deployment troubleshooting.
