I am a software engineer, mechincally minded, and an environmental activist. Originally from New Delhi, I grew up in Vancouver where I attend the University of British Columbia, graduating with a Bachelors of Applied Science in Engineering Physics and a Minor in Honors Mathematics. Recently, I worked for Advanced Development at Auris Health in the Tools and Infrastructure Team developing robotic Apis Before that, I was in the Instruments team as a mechanical engineer, focusing on performance testing. In my spare time you’ll find me out hiking, playing ultimate frisbee, or tinkering on some hardware project. I enjoy learning new things. I'm an energy and public policy nerd, so if you want to chat about urban infill, fast breeder reactors, or learn what either of those mean I’m your guy.

Below is my resume, I'm actively looking for employment. If you think you know of something that is a good fit, please reach out.
