Whoami

I'm Ishaan, and I build things because I can't help myself. I love turning messy ideas into products people can actually use.

Right now I'm learning how to think beyond the code—understanding users, making better product decisions, and figuring out what makes something worth building in the first place.

Outside of work, I'm into games, music, obscure internet rabbit holes, psychedelics, and spending time with friends.
