my education/
MSc Geoinformatics
University of Münster (WWU), Germany
Oct 2024 – Present
Focus on spatial data science, geostatistics, and machine learning. Thesis: Simulating Fine-Scale Population Flow for Infectious Disease Transmission Modelling.
BSc Computer Science
Bharathiar University, India
Dec 2020 – Jun 2023
Foundation in computer science, algorithms, data structures, database systems, and software engineering.
Diploma in Computer Networking - Revised
Alison – Online Learning
2020
Foundations in network architecture, TCP/IP, routing and switching, network security, troubleshooting, and enterprise infrastructure configuration.
how I work/
  • I combine spatial statistics, GIS, and data engineering with programming to build scalable health-analytics pipelines
  • Every analysis I produce ships with a CODECHECK-ready package — code, data, and environment — so results can be independently verified end-to-end
  • I actively seek innovative opportunities where spatial technology intersects with science and society to drive sustainable socio-economic development
  • My broader interests lie in computational public health, mobility-driven risk modeling, and building open decision-support tools for epidemic preparedness

about my work/
6
years

I believe the best science is science anyone can verify. Every project I tackle starts with a question worth answering and ends with code, data, and documentation others can build on. Impact over complexity; clarity over jargon.

6
years

I build scalable analytical platforms and web applications that turn complex geospatial data into actionable insights. My focus is on delivering measurable impact enabling smarter decisions through reliable, AI-driven, and reproducible systems.
