Undergraduate student at BITS Pilani Goa Campus. Currently pursuing my Masters in Biological Sciences and Bachelors in Electronics and Communications Engineering. Enjoy watching cricket and interested in learning a new skill everyday. Actively involved with TEDxBITSGoa since 2016.

Two things in particular, Financial Management and Data Analytics, pique my interest. I am extremely excited by the potential in these fields and hope to use them to make a difference in the society

How Introverts are often misunderstood. It's perfectly fine to be introverted. Society tends to encourage extroversion and introverts are constantly passed over for leadership roles. This leads to introverts constantly doubting themselves and feeling inferior to others. The world must allow introverts their solitude, a time and a place where they can be at their most creative.

I was introduced to the concept of TED and TEDx in my first year at college. Working as a member of the organizing team of TEDxBITSGoa gave me the opportunity to learn several skills. I contributed to speaker research, wrote content for our social media handles and managed the sponsorship for the event. Apart from this, I also helped with the logistics. Through this process, I improved my interpersonal and networking skills. All in all, the experience of TEDx has been memorable and one which I shall cherish forever.
