The road I chose.
Not linear. Not conventional. Entirely mine.
Most people expect a computer science student to follow a clear arc — internship at a startup, placement at a tech company, repeat. I chose something different. Not because I couldn't, but because I was too curious about what else was possible.
I spent my years at PDEU building things that weren't in any syllabus — communities, research papers, investor decks, policy analyses, art exhibits. I walked into rooms I wasn't supposed to be in yet — Harvard, IIT Gandhinagar, national policy convenings — and I made them mine.
I believe the most interesting people are the ones who can hold multiple worlds at once. Finance and art. Technology and policy. Leadership and creativity. I'm still figuring out what I am. But I know how I learn — by showing up, asking questions, and caring deeply about people.
Led by Curiosity
Every door I knocked on started with a question I couldn't stop asking.
Shaped by People
I have been profoundly changed by every human I've truly listened to.
Experience Over Expectation
The best things I've done were never part of the original plan.
Belief in Multitudes
Coder, artist, finance writer, policy researcher — all at once.
