About This Website

This little corner of the web has been around since before the Internet was overflowing with blogs and services. Here, I share things that matter to me, even if they feel a bit old-school. You’ll also find a curated list of links, some of my software, and the latest website updates to explore—maybe you’ll discover something new!

Family & Roots

I come from a big family descended from the late Sri. Ranganatha Iyer. Our roots trace back to Srivanchiyam, a peaceful village in Tamil Nadu, South India, known for its unique Yama temple.

I was born in Chennai to my wonderful parents, Smt. Usha and the late Sri. Viswanathan. I’m married to Smt. Vaishnavi, and we have a son, Chi. Kian. These days, we call Seattle home.
