Hi, I'm Ankush
About Me
I’m a full-stack developer, educator, and builder currently in my third year of engineering. Most of my real learning didn’t come from classrooms, but from building things that broke, fixing them under pressure, and taking responsibility for outcomes.
I enjoy working close to fundamentals — understanding how systems think, scale, and fail. Over time, this led me to build backend systems, real-time applications, and full-scale web platforms, while also teaching full-stack development in startup and community environments.
I’ve worked with freelance clients and teams where I handled architecture, timelines, and execution end-to-end. That experience taught me how to think long-term, make trade-offs, and stay calm when things go wrong.
Hackathons became my proving ground. Tight deadlines, real pressure, and no room for excuses. I’ve won multiple hackathons, including Asia’s largest design-and-code hackathon, and cracked paid internships by focusing on execution over noise.
I’m pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from GLA University, Mathura. I secured 97% in class 10th and 85.6% in class 12th, but what mattered more was learning how to think independently and apply knowledge beyond the syllabus.
I actively mentor juniors, peers, and early-stage developers — both offline and online. I document my journey publicly, not to preach, but to help others avoid mistakes I’ve already paid for.
I didn’t start with clarity. I started by going with the flow. Over time, Computer Science grew on me because it rewards problem-solving, creativity, and responsibility. Developers quietly shape the modern world, and that balance keeps me invested.
I train my body as seriously as I train my mind. Sports, strength, and movement keep me disciplined, calm, and resilient. Cricket and badminton are part of how I stay sharp.
I’m focused on building depth — in skill, character, and thinking. I’m not in a rush. Technology is my medium, but growth is the real project.
