I'm passionate about software development and the thoughtful integration of artificial intelligence to build digital experiences that truly matter. I enjoy contemplating life's mysteries and exploring how technology can be a powerful tool for solving complex problems.

Vanakkam! Namaste! Bonjour! Hello!
I'm Kalki, a Computer Science and Engineering student at Vellore Institute of Technology, Vellore, and currently a summer intern at Foradian Technologies, Bengaluru, India. My journey in technology began with a curiosity about how digital systems work, evolving into a passion for creating meaningful software solutions to combat real-world problems.
Beyond technology, I deeply believe one's true measure lies in the richness of their experiences, driving me to seek out life's mysteries. This conviction led me to chess, where I became the Karnataka U-1700 State Amateur Chess Champion, and martial arts, in which I achieved a Karate Ni-Dan (2nd Black Belt).
I also bring hands-on experience as a Flutter Developer at Monclarity Solutions Pvt. Ltd., where I developed finance applications and integrated APIs to connect various services. Additionally, as a Security Compliance Intern at Valsco Technology, I created security policies adhering to data governance and compliance standards, designed security protocols across systems to ensure confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information, and developed a tiered response system for security incidents.
In parallel, I've cultivated extensive leadership experience, having been elected as the School House Vice Captain and School Head Boy in high school (9th and 10th grade respectively), and served as Member Secretary of the Student Council at VIT for the academic year 2024-25.
Milestones and accomplishments in my journey
Served as Member Secretary of the Student Council at Vellore Institute of Technology in the academic year 2024-25, leading various student initiatives and events.
Held the title of Karnataka U-1700 State Amateur Chess Champion in 2019, which was conducted in Bengaluru.
Completed 8+ years of Karate training, achieving the rank of Ni-Dan (2nd Black Belt) in 2018 in the Kokino Shito Ryu Karate School of India.
