SDE @ Microsoft. Recent graduate from BITS Pilani. Passionate about Space Tech, Sports and Startups.
I grab every chance I get to travel, learn and create.

About Me


I’m a Software Engineer by day, a Table Tennis player by evening, a functional wantrepreneur by midnight and a hustler always.

If you can’t find me, it’s because I’m already cycling, off to a hike, or cheering for Verstappen

I am passionate about Space Technology and Human Psychology (though, never studied them formally). A die-hard fan of Elon Musk.

I love the way the concept of "work" has evolved over the past decades, and hence would love to travel and work together whenever I can.
