I've never been
easy to put in a box.

I’ve always been curious. As a kid, I kept asking questions and trying things until I understood how they worked. Sometimes I’d find an answer, and sometimes I’d simply get tired before I did. Either way, I enjoyed the process. Looking back, curiosity has shaped almost every decision I’ve made.

I grew up in a small village in Telangana called Sriramagiri. I wasn’t one of those kids who knew exactly what they wanted to become, but I always knew what made me feel alive. I’ve always found joy in small wins, simple pleasures, and learning something new. Looking back, I don’t think much has changed.

For a while, that curiosity found its way into Telugu literature. I wanted to see how far I could go if I kept writing consistently, so I started sharing my work on Instagram under the name Bold Writes. What began as a simple experiment slowly grew into a community of more than 20,000 people. Along the way, I met wonderful people, contributed to a short story anthology, and discovered how much I enjoyed understanding people through stories.

I studied computer science, but what stayed with me wasn’t programming itself. It was the curiosity behind it. I became fascinated by how systems work, how different pieces connect, and why some experiences feel effortless while others don’t. Somewhere along the way, I found product design. It felt like a place where creativity, logic, and curiosity could exist together.

When I joined Ellenox, I knew almost nothing about design. Everything was new. Design principles, research, prototyping, product thinking, engineering, AI. Most of what I know today came from learning while doing, asking questions, making mistakes, and repeating that cycle over and over again. That experience shaped the way I think far more than any classroom could have.

Over time, designing naturally led to building. Most of the things I make begin with a simple question. Why is this so complicated? Could this be simpler? What if I built something instead? Some ideas stay as weekend experiments. Others become products that people use every day. I still find that part a little surreal.

Curiosity doesn't stop when work ends. I genuinely enjoy technology and can happily spend hours watching tech videos, listening to podcasts, or long conversations with people building interesting things. I'm usually more interested in how they think than what they've built.

I also love travelling. Give me a beach, an open sky, or a day full of clouds, and I’m happy. There’s something calming about watching the horizon or looking up at the sky. It reminds me that there’s always more to explore.

These days, I spend most of my time building products, designing experiences, and experimenting with new technologies. Sometimes for work, sometimes for myself, and sometimes simply because an idea refuses to leave me alone.

I currently live in Bangalore and work as a Senior Associate Program Designer at Mesa. Outside of work, I’m usually building side projects, reading, exploring new technology, or disappearing into something that caught my curiosity.

I don’t know exactly where curiosity will take me next.

Looking back, it’s done a pretty good job so far.

Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet. I hope something here sparks your curiosity too.

If you’d like to say hello, I’d love to hear from you.
