about.
curious by default.
i'm gosvindraj, gosh for short. i build to stay sharp, not just to ship. some of it works. all of it teaches me something.
primary school
SK Seri Permai, Penang
five years in my hometown. made friends, lost erasers, somehow survived. didn't know what a computer was yet but i was already curious about everything. the pattern starts early.
secondary school
Penang Free School, Penang
one of malaysia's oldest schools. walked in as a kid, left as someone who actually had direction. SPM came around, pulled 8As. more importantly: around 12 or 13, i discovered gaming and got obsessed with how people could connect virtually. that was the spark.
matriculation
KMKT, Kelantan
packed my bags, moved to kelantan, and took my first real CS course. it was basic. very basic. but somewhere between the if-else blocks and the syntax errors, something clicked. i thought: yeah, i can see myself being happy doing this.
degree
Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang
back home in penang. enrolled in BSc Computer Science, majoring in AI, minoring in Management. four years of figuring things out, building things, and learning what i actually care about. also directed university events with crews of 220+ people, which taught me more about humans than any textbook.
work
Remote
spent 3 years working part-time in the web3 space: technical support and community work in the blockchain industry. got hands-on with the real side of crypto beyond the hype.
masters
Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang
went back for an MSc in Computer Science. mixed mode, dissertation in AI and Cybersecurity. another two years of going deep on things that actually matter.
building & exploring
Penang / KL / The Internet
working on personal projects, doing volunteer blockchain education, and going deep on the AI and blockchain intersection. not chasing a title, just chasing the thing that's most interesting right now. if you're reading this, hi. we should probably talk.
yellow, according to surrounded by idiots . enthusiastic, talks too much, gets excited about everything, and absolutely hates sitting still.
ideas come fast because i'm always scanning the frontier. execution follows. every project, finished or not, is how i stay ahead.
can shift into blue when the work needs precision, red when something needs to get done, green when someone just needs to be heard. still yellow underneath. always.
naturally optimistic, probably to a fault. high energy in person, surprisingly focused when alone. the two modes don't always look like the same person.
