I was born in a rural village in South India and spent most of my schooling years in a coastal town. I am passionate about engaging with the community, spending time in nature through activities such as hiking and camping, and hope to learn how to grow fruits and vegetables in the future. My interest in technology stems from the ability of computers to solve complex problems at a rapid pace, which still amazes me to this day.
