About me, but unfiltered

Hello! I'm a developer who exists somewhere between I can fix that and Why did I think I could fix that?

This is For Recruiter...

I don't know every tech under the sun, and I'm definitely not a rocket scientist. But I learn fast and get things working. ✨

this is also For Recruiter...

Please stop asking me to talk to your bot. I am really happy to talk to HUMAN Recruiter. Still I am trying my best to talk to the bot but inside I feel little weird (just saying)

This is For Hiring Manager...

Please Hire ME! I will prove myself worthy, just give me a laptop and a Wi-Fi connection

So here's the true story of my life.

On a normal day, I am a perfectly functioning developer. I can debug, build features, fix my own messes, and occasionally feel very powerful while deleting 300 lines of code and replacing it with 7.
But the moment a coding interview starts—my brain respectfully clocks out. Like, thank you so much for this opportunity, but I am now a potato.
If you give me the same exact question at home, I'll solve it before the deadline. But in an interview? Suddenly I've never seen a loop in my life. What is JavaScript? Who am I? Who are you? Why are we here?
It's like when perfectly healthy patients go to the doctor and suddenly their blood pressure is like: "SURPRISE! Let's be dramatic today!"
There's a name for that: White Coat Syndrome. So I have the developer version of that: White Board Syndrome (a.k.a. Coding Blood Pressure).
If anyone has breathing techniques, affirmations, dark magic, or snacks that fix this, please share. I am open to healing.
😌 But can I handle pressure at work? Yes, absolutely. Because at work: I know the system, know the expectations, and know the people aren't silently judging my thought process in real-time like a talent show audition.
Give me a real project, a cup of coffee, and some space to think? I will deliver. Under pressure, even better. Just, maybe don't watch me type while I do it. My neurons get shy.

Work authorization?

I'm here but not from here. H4 EAD - I don't need any sponsorship! 🇺🇸

My long-term goals....

I want to start a coffee shop, which is not possible... so I want to retire or die at one company (whatever comes first). ☕💼⚰️

When somebody asks me 'Why do you need this job? I want to answer like this... but I can't",

Because I've been googling 'how to become financially stable' and apparently... it starts with a job. Who knew? 💸

Do you like mentoring?

Yep! I learn from others, others learn from me—we just exchange brain cells politely. 🧠🤝
And bonus: I end up knowing more people than just the plant on my desk. 🪴

My favorite food

Indian, Thai and Japanese! Spice is life. 🌶️🍛
