I was born and brought up in Bangalore, India. I started travelling a lot after I got into climbing which in the beginning of 2018. So when I am not working I am mostly climbing/travelling. I have climbed around in a lot of places in India like Hampi, Badami, Ramnagar, Mahabalipuram and Manali. I get along with people well. And I believe in living in the moment. Carpe Diem.
