Overview
About Me
After living in India for 21 years I decided I needed change, and change brought me to Scotland where whilst studying for my masters I volunteered with the Scottish Youth Parliament, organized TED talks, was an elections ambassador for the student union, after a year I moved to London where I currently work in Ed Tech, outside of my day job I like to take part in hackathons, one of the best hackathon experiences I had was travelling across the UK (London, York, Sheffield and Edinburgh), I also love visiting the museums and tech events .
I now work at an ed tech startup in London, teaching coding to kids via video games
