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. ✨

Illustration

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

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). ☕💼⚰️

Job hunting theory I didn’t want to believe (but here we are)

After aggressively searching for a job, I’ve come to a slightly uncomfortable conclusion: a lot of jobs in the market feel… not real. 👀
I even ran a tiny experiment (because of course I did). I applied to a few roles between 11 PM – 1 AM.
Result? Rejection emails within 2 hours. Some were clearly AI-generated, some politely admitted they were automated, and others just… ghosted.
What’s wild is that I tailored my resume exactly to the responsibilities — still rejected. And then came my favorite line:
“We’re moving forward with an internal candidate.”
Cool. Totally fine. But then I have to ask — why post the job at all? Maybe just keep it on the company website and spare us the emotional rollercoaster.
Anyway… if you’re job hunting right now and questioning your sanity: you’re not alone 🫶 and we are cooked. 🍳

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. 🌶️🍛

Life in Nashville (from a former NC resident)

I moved from North Carolina to Tennessee after living there for 8 years and I’m still trying to fully decode this city. 🕵️‍♀️
The traffic is way heavier than these roads deserve, and sometimes it feels like the city is peacefully saying: “we’re closed, try again tomorrow.” 😅
People are calm, polite, and I genuinely love the neighborhood vibes… but living a bit far from the city makes it harder to make friends.
If you’re in Nashville and want to meet for coffee, I’m happy to do a casual meetup. ☕🙂
