Hey there! *waves*

I'm Rakesh. I've been working as a software developer for more than five years, creating UX-first experiences with code, creativity, and pragmatism.

A bit about me

Started my career at a design agency — developed a UX-first mindset and an eye and appreciation for visuals. Now, working with a small product team building a data driven platform.
I believe in iterations rather than making perfect plans.
For most of my career, I have worked with React and NextJS and occasionally with Golang.
