I spent my formative years in the vibrant city of Bangalore, India, before moving to the serene landscapes of Upstate New York for my middle and high school education. For my undergraduate studies, I moved to the dynamic city of Atlanta. My journey then took me to Richmond and now Arlington, Virginia, where I’ve pursued internships and started my professional career.

Over the years, I've constantly sought out creative outlets, whether through fine arts, music, storytelling across various mediums, or interaction design. My passion has always been about forging connections, either by engaging with others or by creating something that facilitates meaningful interactions.

Coming from a musical family, I embraced the violin at the tender age of seven, immersing myself in the rich traditions of Carnatic, the classical music of India. After moving to the United States, my musical journey expanded as I explored Western classical, fiddling, and various other styles. In addition to mastering these styles, I also explored and crafted my own compositions through personal experimentation.
