About Me

My journey, experiences, and what drives me

Who I Am

I'm Jayraj Dulange, an undergraduate student at IIT Gandhinagar with a passion for technology and astrophysics. I'm fascinated by the cosmos and how we can use technology to better understand it.

My journey in technology began with a curiosity about how things work, which led me to explore programming, web development, and eventually specialized fields like image processing for astrophysics.

As a GSoC'24 contributor at SunPy, I'm working on improving Sunkit-Image, enhancing tools that help researchers analyze solar data. This intersection of technology and space science is where I find my greatest inspiration.
