About Keertan Dakarapu

Artist at heart. Architect by thought.I love building stuff. My career has been a natural evolution from a hands-on developer to a technical leader who bridges the gap between high-level product vision and rigorous technical execution. With a background spanning HCI, Software Architecture, and Product Design, I take full-stack ownership—from the initial database schema to production-ready code.long long ago.There are two words to describe me – skeptic artist. My curiosity makes me learn new things. I enjoy designing and creating things. I am a self taught man and I stand by my deadline. I did my Masters in Computer science at University of Texas at Dallas, with Intelligent systems as my major. I have done my MS Software Engineering from VIT University, India. It was the first day of lab session in my undergrad and the concept of algorithms and their design almost immediately caught my fancy. From that day, my journey as a developer began. I realized how computer science was also an art. And from then I was always into developing and designing algorithms, web pages, scripting. I joined a student startup -\'VstartU\', which gave me my initial exposure to the corporate world. We have done small projects for a few NGO\'s and also for firms, regarding web development, both front end and back end, and logo designing. We were the technical team for a Guinness world record holding hackathon conducted at SRM university -\'Ehack\' by Infysec. This exposure gave me a life time experience about public relations and event management. I learnt new technologies in backend and front end accelerating my growth like an agile curve and I grew more like a full stack developer. This is where I was introduced to PHP, SEO, JQuery, Ajax technology, Hosting, Security and other domains. I am currently working on GoLang
