I hail from the infamous city of Ghaziabad, I m an overthinker + oversharer, and I try to stay happy n enjoy life ☺️

Academics: back in school, I used to love maths n chemistry 🧑‍🔬, which led me to pursue Chemical Engineering from IIT Roorkee -> quickly realized that chemical isn't chemistry, but it was too late by then 🤦

Profession: straight out of college, went into Technology Investment Banking @ IndigoEdge -> helped startups in fundraising, later joined an early-stage VC firm @ RiverWalk -> where I try to add "value" to founders 😬... I have primarily worked across EdTech, E-commerce, Healthcare & Fintech

Passions: I feel passion isn't found, it's something that we keep developing and iterating. I m still figuring n identifying it for myself -> but I always like doing brainstorming or deep thinking on random bizarre topics - like How to get Emma Watson to marry me, What if Google stopped working for 1 year, How can I quantify power of an Iron Man suit 🤔

Note Taking & Documentation: It's practically impossible for me, to consume any important information, without taking notes 📔 -> I mostly take offline handwritten notes + I m a passionate notion lover, so capture & segregate a lot of interesting stuff on Notion + I have some 10-12 self whatsapp groups, where I keep dropping audio recordings for my thoughts + I have a private YouTube channel (uploaded 30+ videos), where I document my intellectual & emotional experiences :)

Fundamental Beliefs: everything in life is a function f(x) + non-linearity quotient of life keeps increasing as we move forward... Intelligence = function (time) + there is no way to identify the right advice, so experiment a lot 🧪

Weird Stuff: Although I love talking to people, and doing good quality conversations, at times, find it super difficult to look into someone's eyes + think, simultaneously ;) -> this makes interviews painful 👀

Hobbies: daydreaming about the time when I was in Bangalore + always ready for a badminton match + complaining about overthinking + discussing HP/ MCU trivia & fan theories with friends 🎬
