Hi there! I’m Vageesh, your friendly neighborhood tech enthusiast. I’m passionate about web development—both front-end (because I like things to look pretty) and back-end (because that’s where the magic happens). Oh, and let’s not forget databases—I enjoy organizing data so much that my friends joke I’d probably index my socks if I could!

I have a knack for problem-solving, whether it’s debugging code or figuring out why printers never work when you need them most. I’m always excited to connect with like-minded folks, so if you’ve got something tech-related or just want to chat about databases, feel free to reach out! My portfolio is a mix of my previous work, interests, and contact details—think of it as a techie’s personal diary, but way less awkward to read.

As lifelong students here on planet Earth, I’m still learning (and probably always will be). Whether it’s designing efficient systems, coding new features, or geeking out over the latest tech trends, I’m here for it. Let’s collaborate, innovate, and maybe even share a laugh or two along the way!

I was born in a small town called Sirsi, India, where my journey began. For my bachelor’s degree, I moved to Bangalore—the Silicon Valley of India. While pursuing a degree in mechanical engineering, I developed a growing interest in coding. It became clear to me that understanding computer science was essential in an era where machines and systems are becoming smarter through programming. After completing my bachelor’s and gaining valuable experience through an internship, I decided to take the leap and pursue a master’s degree in computer science at Frostburg State University in the United States.

This multidisciplinary journey—from mechanical engineering to computer science—has given me a unique perspective. I’ve learned to bridge disciplines, solve problems creatively, and adapt to new challenges with ease. Along the way, I’ve also developed a keen interest in marketing and business strategies, particularly those that leverage technology to connect people and create meaningful solutions. Whether it’s designing a mechanical system, developing software, or brainstorming innovative strategies, I approach every task with curiosity and a desire to innovate.

Since childhood, I’ve been fascinated by building things and curious about how they work. As a lifelong LEGO fan (yes, even now!), I believe my love for building and creating stems from those early days of snapping bricks together. While I may not be building with LEGO today, I’m still creating—just in a more technical way. Now, I develop software and work on IT-related projects, channeling that same joy of building into the digital world.

But life isn’t all about tech! I’ve always believed in balancing creativity with curiosity. As a child, I enjoyed sketching—some of my drawings are still floating around somewhere (a few pictures are below for your amusement!). I also learned to play the tabla, a rhythmic Indian percussion instrument, which taught me discipline, rhythm, and patience (plus, it’s a great conversation starter). These days, I enjoy watching movies, exploring new destinations, and immersing myself in different cultures when I travel.

I believe these experiences, both creative and technical, have shaped me into a curious and open-minded individual. Whether I’m solving a technical problem or learning something new, I strive to bring the same enthusiasm and wonder I had as a kid discovering the world for the first time.

Hotel Management System Project

I worked as a full-stack developer on a Hotel Management System project as part of a three-person team. This project aimed to streamline hotel operations such as room bookings, guest records, and administrative tasks. Below are the key highlights:

Technologies Used

Developed using EJS, Node.js, JavaScript, Bootstrap 5, HTML, and MySQL. Later, the system was hosted on AWS for scalability and performance.

Database Design

  • Designed 10 relational tables, all in 4th Normal Form (4NF) to ensure minimal redundancy and optimal data integrity.
  • Created 10 SQL views for better data representation and easier access to frequently queried information.
  • Implemented triggers for automated database actions, such as updating availability statuses.
  • Wrote stored procedures for reusable and efficient execution of complex operations.

Features

  • Developed a secure admin/staff dashboard with role-based access for managing bookings and guest records.
  • Built a room booking module with seamless CRUD operations for real-time management.
  • Added user authentication and session handling for secure interactions.

Frontend

Designed responsive and interactive interfaces using Bootstrap 5 and JavaScript, ensuring a smooth user experience.

Backend

Developed RESTful APIs with Node.js to handle booking processes, room management, and administrative tasks.

Outcome

The system successfully optimized hotel operations, providing a robust and scalable solution for administrators and staff. The use of AWS enhanced reliability and ensured readiness for production-level deployment.
