About Me

ABOUT ME

I studied Political Economy & Urbanization, and now I work at a tech startup. Some other things I've done include: help run and second shoot for a professional photography business, musical theatre and dance (both actor & tech), intern for 3 months studying slum redevelopment for an NGO in Bombay.

I love learning about everything: people, cultures, systems of any kind and talking about a huge variety of topics. My idea of a good time is: good people, good food, and good drinks (coffee/beer/wine).

What else? I read a lot. Mostly novels since I end up reading a lot of technical stuff for work. I really like Murakami and the genre of "magical realism" as whole.
