About
A little about me
I'm currently pursuing a Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA). I'm interested in the intersection of technology, creativity, and ideas.
My interests currently span development, design, and learning how digital products are built. I'm still learning, experimenting, and figuring things out — which is part of the fun.
Besides tech, I love art, beauty, writing, cinema, and basically the things that make us human.

A few thoughts
Some Things I Believe
Believe in spontaneous curiosity.
When you're inspired to do something, do it.
All great things happen spontaneously, as side projects or hobbies, without the aim of making something big.
Agency > courage > intelligence.
Don’t fix your identity. Every human contains multitudes.
All learning is about how to think.
Learn to handle the risk of embarrassment, rejection, and failure — and be shameless.
Don’t be practical, be delusional.
The best way to prove your value is to build something.
Maximize your serendipity.
Write for yourself. Write to remember.
Reject most advice.
