About

I was drawn towards the field of computer science when I attended a course called CS50 by an amazingly talented professor - David Malan. It has been a beautiful journey since then.

I have had exposure of coding microcontrollers to analysing complex datasets to competitive programming. Ofcourse, I am still at the tip of the iceberg considering the vastness of this incredible field.

Currently, I am inclined towards data science and front end development. I have done various courses from different online learning platforms like edx, dataquest etc. I have experience working with Angular, Python, different data analysis libraries like numpy, pandas, matplotlib etc.

As I am in the early stages of my career, I wish to explore and experiment with different domains of computer science in the future.

In my free time, I read about macroeconomics and international diplomacy. Also, I love playing ukulele, writing poetry and travelling to different places.
