About Me
Who am I?
I'm a final-year Computer Engineering undergraduate at University of Peradeniya, driven to explore technology to solve real-world problems. Currently exploring Full-Stack Development, Cloud Engineering, DevOps & Site Reliability Engineering (SRE).
Currently working as an SRE Intern @ WSO2.
In my free time, I contribute to open-source projects and collaborate with the developer community. I also participate in various competitions to challenge myself.
Outside of engineering, I'm a former competitive swimmer - a discipline that taught me focus, consistency & perseverance which I now enjoy as a hobby. I also love traveling, discovering new places and perspectives along the way.
