Interessen

Photography and video editing is something I am really passionate about. Last year I was in Uganda involving myself in photography/videography tasks in different parts for the purpose of Women Empowerment for a US based client.

International Relations is another aspect that excites me. I have chaired several conferences across different cities of South India with regards to Model United Nations and in 2017 went to Bolivia as well for the same. Being in CS and being able to interact with people of different backgrounds and understanding their perspective is extremely beautiful and insightful.

Psychology has fascinated me always and I have studied it for 2 years in High School and am currently pursuing a degree in BA Hons. Psychology. I plan to connect it with my aviation career by doing a Masters in Human Factors in Aviation that has big influences from Psychology and Aviation.

Personal finance and financial markets are another exciting field that I feel everyone needs to have a basic grasp on(especially the former). I would enjoy having conversations with surfers who are interested in learning a little more about the same.
