About

I'm a systems builder, full-stack engineer, and open-source creator who builds software from first principles.I have a bit of an obsession with zero-dependency architecture. Early on, I got tired of building apps that were just a fragile tower of third-party libraries. To figure out how software actually works at the deepest level, I built a custom C11 compiler completely from scratch without any parser generators or external runtimes.That foundational experience changed how I approach product design. Today, I build tools that strip away unnecessary abstractions to focus entirely on performance, speed, and real utility.

Burrow - Voice AI researcher on infinite canvas. Local-first, BYOK.

Burrow is a local-first, voice-driven AI research workspace built around an infinite canvas. Instead of keeping research buried in chat, it lets you explore topics, read documents, search the web and papers, create notes, connect ideas, and organize everything visually. It supports BYOK AI providers, local models, voice input, and persistent workspaces—giving you control over your data, models, and research process.

Parmar - AI pre-filter optimizing LZMA data compression.

This compressor outperforms standard tools by using AI-driven BPE tokenization as a pre-filter, optimizing raw data before traditional compression. Key advantages include superior compression ratios, intelligent semantic pattern recognition, and faster processing speeds by reducing the workload on standard algorithms.
