Bio
I'm a final year student at BVRIT Hyderabad, majoring in Information Technology . I'm passionate about my goals and have been actively involved in extracurricular activities and projects in college .
Throughout my academic journey, I've gained a strong foundation in improving my skills . I've also had the opportunity to apply my knowledge through Internship at TiE Hyderabad for TIE Global summit 2022, where I got a chance to volunteer over 2000+ Entrepreneurs from different parts of the world .
In addition to academic pursuits, I've involved in IEEE, where I've held leadership roles and contributed to many achievements . I'm excited to explore opportunities in different fields, where I can leverage my skills and knowledge to make a meaningful impact.
I'm always seeking new challenges and opportunities to learn and grow, and are committed to staying up-to-date with the latest trends and developments in the field.
I'm passionate about
Entrepreneurship has always been my passion, even though I didn't grow up in a community that fostered business ownership, nor was I surrounded by many business-minded individuals. I discovered that entrepreneurship offered the freedom to set my own schedule and take control of my future. Pursuing entrepreneurship has opened up many different areas of interest for me, whether it's crocheting sweaters, selling ice cream from a truck, or running a large corporation. Ultimately, I believe that passion is about finding something that makes you feel confident, secure, and knowledgeable, and for me, that something is entrepreneurship.
An idea worth spreading
"Ukiyo: Finding Joy and Fulfillment in the Present Moment through Mindful Living and Self-Care".
It is the state of mind where individuals strive to detach themselves from the difficulties and mundane aspects of everyday life and focus solely on the present moment. This is often achieved through indulging in the pleasures of life, such as enjoying nature, art, music, food, and drink.
The idea behind ukiyo is to live life to the fullest, to enjoy each fleeting moment as it comes, without worrying about the past or the future. This state of mind encourages people to focus on the positive aspects of life and to detach themselves from negativity and stress.
However, Ukiyo emphasizes pleasure-seeking and the pursuit of happiness, it doesn't necessarily mean indulging in excessive or harmful behaviors. Rather, it's about finding a balance between pleasure and responsibility, and living life in a way that is fulfilling and meaningful.

The TED story
As a TEDx volunteer at TEDxVCE, I had the opportunity to work with a team of dedicated individuals who were passionate about the TEDx mission. Specifically, I was assigned to the Operations team, which meant that I was responsible for helping to ensure that the event ran smoothly and that all attendees had a positive experience. During the lead-up to the event, my role involved tasks such as setting up the venue, coordinating with other teams to ensure that all necessary equipment and materials were in place, and assisting with any last-minute preparations that needed to be done. On the day of the conference, I was responsible for helping to direct attendees to their seats, ensuring that all speakers and performers had everything they needed, and responding to any issues or concerns that arose. I also had the opportunity to interact with attendees and speakers throughout the day, which was a great way to learn more about the ideas and perspectives that were being shared. Overall, my experience as a TEDx volunteer was extremely rewarding. I learned a lot about the inner workings of a TEDx event, and I was able to contribute to the success of an event that showcased some truly worth spreading ideas.
