About Me

Hi there! My name is Niraj, and I am a software engineer with a passion for building beautiful products that engage users and solve their problems.

I received my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the University of Mumbai in 2022. Since then, I have been working as a software engineer, using my skills in problem-solving to create engaging and impactful products. I am constantly seeking out new challenges and ways to push myself to the next level.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my pet cockatiel, playing chess, and listening to calming music. I am also a huge animal lover, which has instilled in me a deep sense of empathy that I strive to express through the products I build.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my website. If you would like to contact me, please email me at neerajratnawat@gmail.com. I would be happy to discuss potential opportunities or projects with you.
