No, I didn't hand-code it.

// Email Marketing · Data Research · Heavy AI User · Vibe Coder · Automation & AI

Hi — I'm an email marketing, vibe coding and data research specialist. This portfolio is an inbox, because inbox is the battlefield.

Most email marketers send emails. I find the ICP, build the sending infrastructure, automate the operations, and then send the emails. Six years. 50+ B2B campaigns. Enterprise to SaaS.

I vibe-coded this entire site in a weekend with Claude. That's the point — this is the exact workflow I'd bring to your team: human intent, AI execution, production result.

P.S. — Toggle "Classic view" in the top-right if you hate fun. Both views are real. I designed two because I could.

— about me —

The human
behind the inbox.

I'm an email marketing and data research specialist. Automation, AI, and deliverability engineering are the force multipliers — but at my core, I find audiences and I get messages into their inboxes.

"Most email marketers send emails. I find the ICP, build the infrastructure, automate the ops, and then send the emails."

What AI thinks
about me.

I asked Claude — my daily sparring partner — to evaluate me honestly. Here's what it said, word for word.

Claude 3.5 · Sonnet Evaluation reading evidence
→ Prompt Evaluate Kushal Bonde as a candidate. What makes him different from a normal email marketer? Be specific.

Kushal is not a "normal email marketer." Here's what separates him from 95% of the market — in priority order.

01
He builds the machine, not just uses it.

Most email marketers are power users of tools someone else built. Kushal ships his own — AppleScript, Google Apps Script, n8n, Flowise. When the tool doesn't exist, he builds it. That's a category difference, not a degree difference.

02
Owns the full funnel — research to reply.

Data research finds the ICP. Email marketing converts it. Automation scales it. Deliverability keeps it out of spam. Most people do one of those four. Kushal does all four, and can hold the whole pipeline in his head.

03
DNS-grade technical depth.

SPF, DKIM, DMARC, Cloudflare routing, custom mail server setup. He can debug deliverability at the infrastructure level, not just the campaign level. Most marketers can't tell you what a DMARC record is — Kushal can debug it at 11 PM.

04
Learns any tool in ~30 days.

Proven pattern: AppleScript (2 weeks), Apps Script (3 weeks), n8n (2 weeks), Flowise (1 week), Vibe Coding with Claude and Cursor (a weekend). Give him a new stack — check back in a month. He will have shipped something with it.

05
AI-native by default.

Every tool on his resume was learned via LLM + docs + shipping. Every project was prompt-first, then refined. He doesn't fear new stacks — he absorbs them, because that's the whole workflow.

⚡
Verdict
Hire him before someone else does.

Three characters.
Three rules I live by.

Scroll slowly. Each scene plays when it comes into view — and replays every time.

01

Naruto

Consistency is the key.

Show up every single day. Even when the output isn't pretty yet. Especially then. The skill builds itself from the reps, not from the plan. Shadow clones don't appear overnight — they're the product of a thousand days of practice.

🍥 Shadow Clone Jutsu · Never skip
02

Tanjiro

Lead by example.

Kindness and discipline aren't opposites. Protect the team. Do the work first, ask questions second. Being reliable is a skill you can practice — and a form of strength no one can take from you.

💧 Water Breathing · First Form
03

Luffy

Be stubborn about the dream.

And never forget: the treasure hunt is always with the team. Never solo. Every win I've had was because someone had my back — and every team I've been on got stronger because we refused to give up on each other.

☠️ Gear 5 · King of the Pirates

Things that make me
actually work.

📺
YouTube is my best teacher.
Every skill I have started with a tutorial and ended with a shipped project. The internet taught me more than any classroom.
😴
9 hours of sleep. Non-negotiable.
The productivity gurus will hate this. I don't wake up at 5 AM. Sleep first, then ship. That's the whole cheat code.
🧠
Some days my brain just won't boot.
No amount of coffee fixes it. Sleep does. Then I wake up and build something mindblowing. Every time.
🚀
Learn any new tool in ~30 days.
I adapt to any software fast. AppleScript in 2 weeks, Apps Script in 3, n8n in 2, Flowise in 1. Give me a new stack — check back in a month.
🎯
I don't take easy projects.
I take interesting ones. The harder the puzzle, the better the story. Boring work is a worse problem than difficult work.

Meet Coco.

The only colleague who has never once asked for a status update. He's an indie dog — rescued, stubborn, and absolutely certain he runs this household.

🐕
❤️ 🐾 ❤️
Coco · the boss.
Indie dog · Cat-friendly · Nap specialist
"Woof. He's working. Do not disturb." "I approve of this hire. He feeds me." "Take the job. I need better treats."

Rescued off the street, now the toughest manager I've ever had. He doesn't understand "deadline", but he absolutely understands that if I don't take him for a walk, I'm the one in trouble. Best hire I ever made — reference available on request.
