01 — The Journey

A career that moves
toward usefulness.

I began as an engineer, spent nearly a decade teaching at Rutgers University in the United States — then came home to study law, because the women of my country need advocates more than they need apps.

2005–12

Anna University — B.E., M.E., then Assistant Professor

Computer Science, both degrees — then straight to the other side of the same classrooms at Anna University Chennai.

2016–25

Rutgers University, USA — Adjunct Professor, then Lecturer

Nearly a decade of computer science — Data Structures, Networks, Databases, Mobile Development — plus ACUE certification (2017) and a Best Performer Award.

2019–

Co-founder of institutions that serve

Chaosology (2019), Boreology (2023), Lectureology Academy (2024) — and the Sanctology Welfare Foundation (2025): dignified homes for homeless elders, zero overhead. Each runs under its own leadership today; my working hours belong wholly to law.

Now

LL.B. — Thulasi College of Law for Women · learning Hindi

Second year of law. Studying the BNS and IT Act as tools that must reach the women they were written to protect — and learning Hindi, because those women live in every state of India.

02 — The Work

Law in your hand.

Founder · 2026

cyberudhavi.com

A victim answers one question — “what happened to you?” — and in two taps sees which section of law protects her, what to do in the first hour, and a button that dials 1930 instantly. Tamil today. Hindi and every Indian language tomorrow.

Origin

It began as a hand-drawn poster

A district competition entry with a mirror glued to it — “who could be the next target? it is you” — that grew into a live public service within one week.

03 — Milestones

Proof, not promises.

1st

Prize — Cyber Crime Awareness, 2026

Dept. of Social Welfare & Women's Rights — for a poster that became a public service.

Member · since 2024

TDCCI

District Chamber of Commerce & Industry — engaged with the economic life of the region I serve.

9+

Years teaching in the USA

Rutgers University — ACUE certified, Best Performer Award.

Service · 2025

Sanctology Welfare Foundation

Co-founded zero-overhead homes for homeless elders — every rupee reaches those it is meant for. The measure of a society is how it treats those who cannot repay it.

Conviction

A right you can't use isn't a right yet

Everything I build must work for a woman with a feature phone and no English — without privilege, without jargon, without cost.

“Who is the strongest defence against cyber crime? Look in the mirror — it is you.”

From the first-prize poster · 2026
04 — Next

The poster was step one.
The website, step two.
The courtroom is next.

I intend to practise law — and to grow CyberUdhavi into a legal-aid service for women across India. Every language. Every state. Every woman.
