About
I keep a technology-driven, innovative, and energetic approach in life. Being a fourth-year undergraduate I consider myself, full of ideas to change the world with technology. I am an incoming data scientist and love to advocate about these cutting edge technologies. Culturally connected with the training in the sacred dance form of Bharatanatyam for nine years has taught me patience, hard work, and discipline that I preach in life.
