About MeΒΆ

Welcome to my world! My name is Nitya Narasimhan and I am a PhD, a Polyglot, and a Parent. I've worked in tech for nearly three decades in roles spanning research, engineering, and advocacy. I've also been a community leader in the Greater New York region for over a decade, organizing meetups and conferences that have skilled thousands of developers.

As a parent and educator, I'm becoming increasingly invested in helping people learn AI in a way that makes complex topics feel more relatable to their lives, and in providing them with hands-on learning resources that help translate awareness into action.

My day job as an AI advocate at Microsoft is focused on the Azure AI platform. But my personal interests span a variety of topics from open-source tooling to visual storytelling and creative content projects that put the fun in fundamentals.

Nitya Learns AI is my 2025 initiative to help me bridge those personas. It builds on my learnings from my #30DaysOf initiative, but with a focus on personal growth and experimentation. How can you track my progress? Look for these resources in 2025:

  • My LinkedIn newsletter with this name (coming in 2025)
  • The nitya-learns-ai topic on GitHub, tagging relevant projects
  • The #NityaLearnsAI tag on videos and illustrated guides - website TBA

Learn with me - make a resolution to add AI to your engineering toolkit in 2025!
