About Me

Software Developer, Open Source Contributor

I am a CS graduate student at University of Southern California, Los Angeles

I originally hail from Mumbai, India. My mission as a software developer is to contribute to applications that improve and empower people's lives. I love to try different cuisines and learn about cultures at places I visit. With these new skills in hand I am eager to hit the ground running! Learning is my #1 passion. I look forward to being a life-long student of technology. Aside from Tech and learning, I am passionate about culture, community, and food!

I'm a curious learner. I'm continuously learning, falling, learning. I am passionate about knowledge transfer and mentorship. I am also a active member of different organizations like SWE, RTC and Girls in Tech.

Blogs & Exocortex

I write code, blog posts, notebooks, and musings.

My blog is where I keep my big lessons. Sometimes they're important code knowledge or concepts. Sometimes it's career or life lessons.

The ExoCortex is where I keep all my reference knowledge. It covers everything from coding, soft skills, nonfiction, and anything else I find useful to remember.

I want to write but can't quite fit into my blog or ExoCortex goes here. Any silly things get scribbled in Recent Notes.
