Graduated from IIT Roorkee in chemistry, then spent my freshman year discovering I would rather build software. I have been doing that since.

Interests
I try to make the most out of my time by exploring the latest technological advancements. Apart from being a tech enthusiast, I enjoy most of my time playing guitar. I have an OCD for music and love to have a sorted music library.
When forced indoors, I follow a number of sci-fi genre movies and television shows and a large amount of my free time exploring new advancements in every field. Some of my time is invested in learning how our brain functions.
