welcome to my corner of the internet

Hey,I'mAlen.

Welcome to my little corner of the internet — a place for technology, stories, games, music, curiosity, and pretty much everything I find interesting.

Get to know me Browse my favourites

From Kerala, India — backwaters, filter coffee, and very green hills.

Software engineer, roughly three years in, mostly living in the backend.

Hopelessly curious about how things work, from databases to galaxies.

Equally at home with a query plan and a good rom-com. No notes.
