The Premise
Welcome to my digital garden. Unlike a static portfolio or traditional resume, this environment functions as an active, evolving repository of end-to-end systems architecture, physical tinkering projects, distributed engineering practices, and real-time protocol experiments. Ideas here exist across a spectrum of maturity—from raw seed notes to fully articulated protocol specifications and production architectures.
Note Maturity Index
🌱 Seedlings: Raw, unrefined ideas, active research questions, and initial hypotheses.
🌿 Budding: Developing concepts, work-in-progress implementations, and field notes.
🌲 Evergreen: Production-proven architectural standards, mature frameworks, and complete guides.
Garden Territories
• Systems & Protocols — Silicon to Media Edge: Deep technical architecture across telecommunications and media streaming. Highlights include 3GPP emergency routing, Android WebRTC performance, 5G ANBR adaptation, and Voice AI gateways. (/systems-and-protocols)
• Tinkering & The Bench — Hardware & Mobility: Hands-on physical systems engineering, embedded software, and sustainable power. Features custom e-bike drive dynamics, solar NEM 3.0 battery arbitrage, and Chrome OS Linux agents. (/tinkering-and-the-bench)
• Leadership & Craft — Scale & Velocity: Principles for scaling high-performing global engineering organizations. Covers the Global Pod Model, cross-layer systems literacy, and lessons from Bangalore to Silicon Valley. (/leadership-and-craft)
