About

A little about me

I grew up in Aurangabad and came to Nagpur for engineering. In my second year I built an attendance tracker for my class because the paper register kept getting lost; 600 students used it by the end of the semester, and I have been building small, useful things ever since.

Outside classes I run the coding club's beginner track, play table tennis for the college and volunteer with a Saturday maths class for children near campus.
