I am an Engineering graduate of the 2015 batch. Post graduation I worked for TechMahindra with a tenure lasting about 26 months. My interest towards Human Resources developed during my work tenure led me to join IIM Ranchi. Here I am pursuing master's in Human Resource Management and will graduate in 2020.

Travelling, reading novels, watching movies

I am really curious about the potential of the human mind. If we look back to the journey from stone age till now, the amount of development in terms of technology and other spheres is mind-boggling. This pace at which technological inventions are coming up shows the boundary defying extent to which we humans can think. Augmented reality in the field of gaming, its potential, consequences, affect and after effects in the light of growing popularity of combat games is one such idea I would like to explore further and spread.

I first came across TED talk while randomly searching for movies on YouTube. The title of the talk seemed interesting which led me to watching it. Amazed by the platform and goal TED is working for, this is how my first association with TED started (as a viewer).
