My Journey

I'm a Senior Computer Science and Engineering student at IIIT-Delhi with roots in a small, underrepresented community. My early academic journey was tough, but a passionate teacher helped me believe in myself. Since then, I've been committed to learning, leading, and contributing back to society.

I dream of building a meaningful life where work is driven by passion and impact and not pressure. Currently, I'm exploring the fascinating world of cybersecurity while maintaining a disciplined lifestyle that balances academics, fitness, and personal growth.
