About Me

Nishant Desai

Hello! Thank you for visiting my website. Currently, I've been working remotely from Mumbai at Nutrient (formerly PSPDFKit) as an iOS Engineer. Previously, I have worked on the iOS App of BookMyShow.

I focus on building great apps and SDKs for iOS. Over the years, I've worked to improve not just my technical skills, but also how I communicate and work with others. Outside of coding, I'm a big cricket fan and enjoy reading about history and human psychology.
