I grew up in South India, and am now based in New York City where I work as a Data Scientist at a digital health tech startup company called AbleTo (www.ableto.com). During my graduate studies, I lived in the International House, New York, where I became friends with people from different parts around the world. I am fond of live music, play indoor hockey & soccer in a league, and enjoy meeting people from around the world.
