What I'm doing right now

Updated June 2026 · inspired by nownownow.com

Building

genuine.dev — the site you're reading — is done: DB-backed theming and fonts, a full owner-editable site-identity system (brand, logo/favicon, socials), and the directive-driven case-study renderer all shipped. Two of the four-project Rust backend roadmap are done now. Working through the e-commerce platform next.

Learning

Bug bounty on Bugcrowd — rotating through auth and business logic bugs right now. Reading CMU 15-445 lecture notes alongside building. Hindi through songs as dual language + singing practice.

Fitness

Calisthenics three times a week — working towards a clean muscle-up. Running 5K twice a week for baseline cardio. No gym, bodyweight only.

Not doing

Not doing freelance work. Not doing hackathons or side projects outside the portfolio. Not on social media other than GitHub. Focused mode until the three case studies ship.
