About Karan
I care about technology when it makes something genuinely easier.
I’m a developer and analyst based in London. I work with data, automation and reporting, and I build projects focused on accessibility and practical education.

My professional work begins with operational problems: information stored in the wrong shape, repetitive steps that absorb people’s time, reports that do not answer the question, or processes that have grown difficult to follow.
I use SQL, Python, Azure, reporting tools and APIs to make those systems more dependable. At Brave New World, that has meant building data pipelines and automated workflows, improving how teams see their work and reducing the time it takes to resolve customer issues.
Why accessibility and education?
Outside my main role, I’m building Autismy, a project exploring clearer ways for autistic people to communicate their preferences, routines and support needs. I’m also contributing to LIFE HACKS, a nonprofit programme for sixth-form students that combines evidence with student input to teach practical skills for life beyond school.
These projects are connected by the same belief: useful tools begin with a close understanding of the person who will use them.
Research and learning
I completed an MSc in Software Systems at the University of Bath. While there, I co-authored FakeForward, a paper published at ACM CHI 2023 on personalised video self-modelling for physical exercise and public speaking. My earlier research explored a browser extension that uses machine learning to detect phishing websites.
I previously studied Information Technology at the University of Mumbai and Computer Science at SVKM Bhagubhai Mafatlal Polytechnic. I continue to learn through professional programmes in data, cloud technology, problem-solving and communication.
Beyond work
I volunteered with the World’s Biggest Beach Cleanup Drive during 2016, helping organise meetups and participating in environmental cleanup activity. I also completed a 100-push-ups-a-day challenge in support of Cancer Research UK.
