I design stuff. Sometimes I start companies. Right now I'm doing both at Matiks — building it from scratch with Sudhanshu and Mohan.
Before this, I was at Flipkart. Designing products used by millions taught me one thing — most "design" is just overthinking obvious solutions. The best stuff is dead simple.
I went to IIT Guwahati for ECE. Spent more time competing than studying — mental math nationals at 12, table tennis finals at 15, basketball courts, chess boards. The classroom was never my real arena.
I show up. Work, sport, or the gym — same energy, every single time.

2019 — 2021Almost chose this path full-time. Six frames from the IIT Guwahati days — concerts, portraits, landscapes, and everything in between.
Milestones that
shaped me.
2010 — National Mental Math Champion
Won nationals at 12. Numbers just made sense — speed, patterns, precision.
2013 — Runner Up — National Table Tennis
Made it to the national finals. First real taste of competing at the top level.
2014 — Chess Competitions
Represented school at multiple chess events. Strategy became instinct.
2015 — Karnataka State Basketball — Runner Up
Ball handler. State runner up. Basketball taught me that individual talent means nothing without the team.
2016 — Suspended from School
Hell yeah. Sometimes rules need breaking. Found my own path. Zero regrets.
2018 — IIT Guwahati — ECE
Got in. Electronics & Communications. The degree was fine, the real stuff happened outside class.
2019 — Photographer — IIT Guwahati
Fell hard for photography. Concerts, portraits, landscapes — seriously considered going full-time with it.

Geopolitics
Power dynamics, alliances, world order. My working-years obsession. Still can't stop.
Macro Economics
Goes hand in hand with geopolitics. Matiks stole most of my reading time though.
