Introduction

Fascinated by robotics systems—specifically how automated systems can help create a more sustainable and fair future for all. Fueled by curiosity, a love for learning and a commitment to building lasting partnerships.

Mission

Dedicated to creating robotics/software solutions to improve lives and tackle challenges aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. My ultimate dream is helping to uplift my home country, Sri Lanka, through humanitarian engineering efforts.

Interests

Hugely football lover (Visca Barça!) and sports phenatic more generally, alongside music and travel. Otherwise, I spend most of my spare time exploring new ideas in technology, human psychology, history etc. to broaden my perspective.
