About

I build software for people tired of doing it by hand.

I'm an IT engineer from Kathmandu. My day job is data QA engineering for a US healthcare analytics company, where I write Python that replaces work people used to do by hand. I do the same thing for freelance clients: I look at the part of your operation that's held together by spreadsheets, email threads and copy-paste, and turn it into software that runs itself. A language-school course platform, a 24/7 page-change monitor, a point-and-click web scraper — every one of them started out as somebody's spreadsheet.
