Hi My name is Akshay V Nair

Software Engineer | Aspiring Software Architect

Nerd. But I really like biiiiggg massive tech projects. I've helped build a couple so far as a software engineer. In those projects I built a custom CLI, a UI library, and overall helped out a team of 500 developers built out a product that is used by 30 million users. Nowadays, I'm a grad student studying in New York City.... and hunting for the next project.
