Pricing intelligence · data products · field notes
I build pricing tools, BI systems, and independent products.
I grew up in Mumbai, studied and worked in Boston, and now build from Montréal. Travel keeps changing what I notice and what I make next.
02 / The route
Six stops connect education, work, products, and independent practice. Scroll or choose a marker to follow the sequence. The route shows story order, not residence, distance, or duration.
Equal Earth map of six life and work chapters. Marker position represents geography; curved arrows represent chapter order rather than distance or duration. Chapter five is anchored in Toronto while representing Canada-wide work.
Mumbai, India
In Mumbai, electronics engineering built the foundation: circuits, signals, and the discipline of understanding how complex systems behave before trying to improve them.
Boston, United States
Boston is where analytics stopped being coursework and became public infrastructure, through graduate study, teaching, and public-health work.
Québec, Canada
At BRP in Québec, reporting work grew into an operating tool that brought daily sales and inventory decisions into one view.
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
A difficult ride in Rio left me with a question I could not drop: how could an unfamiliar trip feel safer and fairer? That question became Justo.
Toronto, Canada
At Softchoice, I turn commercial signals into pricing models, decision tools, and clear recommendations for leaders.
Montréal, Canada
Montréal is the home base for Volplane, the independent practice that brings data, BI, and applications into one client relationship.
03 / Selected work
Three selected cases show the constraints, the systems I built, and what changed in the working process.
DV 005 / Logistics
An R-based logistics tool that groups nearby dealers, allocates each truck within capacity, and optimizes the visit sequence by solving two connected problems.
Balance dealer priority, shipment volume, route length, and the order of stops.
100-mile working groups + TSP stop sequencing + CVRP truck-capacity constraints.
DV 003 / Product
A live iOS product that combines community reports, local safety context, and on-device privacy tools across four Brazilian cities.
SwiftUI, PostGIS, safety context, community reporting, on-device face blur.
Live product · solo design and engineering.
DV 004 / Business intelligence
One operating view for sales, inventory, and daily priorities, supported by automated R pipelines and an aging-inventory application.
Scattered data and manual reports slowed daily inventory decisions.
A division dashboard, daily R automation, and an aging inventory app.

Global mobility / personal notes
I have navigated immigration processes in the United States and Canada, and I now hold an OCI card plus residence status in Uruguay and Mexico. I'm happy to compare practical notes from personal experience.
This is personal experience, not legal or immigration advice. I do not assess eligibility, interpret options, prepare applications, or represent applicants. For case-specific guidance, use an authorized professional.

I like biking with a DJI Mini 2 in the backpack, then bringing home a few seconds that hold the feeling of a place. At night, the Insta360 sometimes takes over.
06 / Independent practice
Volplane
volplane / verb / to glide with the engine off.
Volplane is my independent practice for data, business intelligence, and focused applications. I work directly with teams that have a decision to make, a reporting process that keeps breaking, or a useful tool they cannot quite get shipped.
The name comes from an aviation word for gliding without engine power. I liked the idea of doing more with what is already there, with less drag and no unnecessary machinery.

Metric definitions, dashboards, and the pipelines that keep them current.
You leave withA trusted operating view and a workflow your team can own.
Internal tools, client products, web apps, and iOS builds for work that has outgrown spreadsheets.
You leave withA working product, documented and handed over cleanly.
What working together looks like
One point of contact from start to finish. A short fit call, a written scope, regular working reviews, and a clean handoff. If the problem needs a larger team or a specialist, I will say so early.
