About Me
There are so many sides to someone that you cant see. When I first thought about making this portfolio, I decided I could only show one, my developer side. But is that really who I am? In actuality, i'm only a developer because I feel like I'm slowly building myself with my work. I create things because they make me feel full, I design to chase authenticity. Yes, I love what I do, but im trying to stop pretending that I'm not anything else. Because, theirs always a reason to why you love something.So, hey, I'm Adhitya. I love creative work, im a avid video editor, and someone with a newfound love for philisophy and a remerging love for writing fun fact: When I was a kid, I thought id be an author, and its a dream i havent given up on yet. I love music, and im founder of Dusk Labs. I build systems at the intersection of AI, developer tools, and product design. Currently working on Vivid (AI video upscaling, interpolation, and restoration) and Script (helping students land real research through AI-driven outreach).My focus is building things end-to-end, from product vision and UX to infrastructure and performance. I work across highly abstracted layers like TypeScript, React, to low-level systems like Rust, C++, and more. This way, I have full control on the entire product. Recently exploring ML inference and model runtimes, and cloud infrastructure.The best feeling is making something that works as good as it feels, so id say im a product person at heart. Long-term, I'm aiming to push into CS + HCI with a strong product and entrepreneurship focus.Now time for the boring stuff >>
