About Me

Grounded in community, driven by curiosity

Life in code, circuits, and coastal sunsets.

Born and raised in Weligama, I split my days between university labs, maker meetups, and the ocean breeze. I document everything—from robotics victories to the quiet early-morning study sessions that push my craft forward.

Building is how I understand the world. Every project starts as a story worth sharing.

Lifestyle Snapshots

How I balance studies, family, and the projects that keep me inspired.

Morning Ritual

Coffee, journal, and a 30-minute review of GitHub issues before classes. Quiet focus sets the tone for the day.

  • Daily gratitude notes
  • Circuit ideas sketched in a dotted notebook
  • Lo-fi playlists on repeat

Campus Life

SLIIT keeps me in motion—from labs and meetups to mentoring juniors on their first embedded builds.

  • Co-leading robotics study groups
  • Testing ESP32 firmware in the hardware lab
  • Planning hackathon concepts with friends

Weekend Reset

Weekends are reserved for family, beach walks in Weligama, and editing footage from recent projects.

  • Photography drives along the southern coast
  • Experimenting with synthwave mixes
  • Family dinners and cricket recaps
