About

About Me

A stargazer wishing to reach the very stars that I dream about.

  • Brief intro?I am a third year undergrad at IIIT Bangalore who is deeply in love with Python. Isn't it amazing how easily Python can be used to make our lives easier?
    Math, broadly logic, being my most favourite from childhood, it was obvious that I got attracted to the world of code.
    Currently, I am finding my way through the vast world of tech, sometimes Machine Learning, sometimes Web development, sometimes just writing python scripts.
    I am a strong believer of community building and diversity. I deeply care about the representation of women in STEM and I always enthusiastically look forward to making impact, however small that is.
    Learn from a few, learn with a few others, learn to teach a few more. This is my guiding philosophy:)
