A Brief Introduction

I am Shiva Ganesh Ramakrishnan, currently pursuing a Master of Science in Computer Science at the University of California, Santa Cruz. With a foundational degree in Information Technology from PSG College of Technology where I achieved a CGPA of 9.1/10, I am passionate about utilizing my skills in full-stack development and network systems to drive technological innovation and education.

In my professional experience, I've tackled significant challenges such as leading the migration of commercial applications to Openshift at Citibank and developing robust REST APIs. My technical expertise spans across a variety of tools and technologies including Python, Java, React, and Node.js. I thrive in environments that require both innovative solutions and rigorous attention to detail.

Outside of my professional and academic pursuits, I have a deep passion for football, proudly supporting FC Barcelona. Pedri is not just my favorite player because of his skills on the pitch but also his dedication and work ethic, qualities I strive to emulate in my own career. My love for films spans multiple languages—Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu and English—providing me with diverse cultural perspectives and a broader understanding of storytelling.

To stay active and maintain a balanced lifestyle, I enjoy jogging and cycling. These activities not only help me stay physically fit but also clear my mind and boost my creativity, enhancing my problem-solving skills at work and in my studies.
