About Me

 I am a tech and design enthusiast born into and raised by a humble family in a small industrial town in Tamilnadu. I am fascinated by how both tech and design together is so effective at evoking emotion in people , providing an immersive experience to them. It is this perfect blend of form and function that I am passionate to create as it requires both technical & creative expertise and is the reason why I am currently pursuing Bachelor’s in Communication Design at Pearl Academy, Bengaluru which is one of the top design institutes in India. 

I have always had interest in creative pursuits and computers. As a kid I would only have my lunch if I was allowed to play with MS Paint. I have been always skilled in using computers and technologies and was awarded the computer wizard award multiple times during my school years I always came up with new creative ideas in my class and was awarded inventive thinking award multiple times at my school for the same. All of this childhood passion led me to become one of the 15 finalists in Indian Silicon Valley Challenge, a nationwide, startup innovation competition that was held by Scaler School of Technology.

The introduction of internet was a life changer for me. Unlike a lot of people my age, Internet came quite late into my life. I was introduced to youtube only a couple of years before the pandemic. Youtube was a love at first sight. I was fascinated by the fact that everyone gets a chance to voice out their stories and knowledge for free and could even make a living out of it.

 Naturally, I was interested to create content and that is when I started to learn Photoshop. It started a rabbit hole that delved deep into and in the process learn several skills such as video editing and graphic design. During this time I also developed at huge liking towards movies and music, especially of Tamil, Malayalam and English. It taught me a lot about storytelling and life at the same time improving my artistic sensibilities by providing exposure to different cultures and people. I also worked on my technical skills during this time. I learnt Python, HTML and CSS. I also became the linux, PCs & consumer electronics follower that I am today.
